That serial # is the Artist model which was the top Burner model. It was handmade but carved and finished in Japan. We cut the body tops here and shipped them over. We also supplied Fingerboard blanks for most of the Burners as well as Figured maple and Walnut for the Custom models. Ash was usually bought there for the Basses but we did ship them some. After 1992, all Circuits were installed here in the shop.

I hope this helps.
