I don't know how high the serial numbers are now. Someone who has just
purchased an instrument or a dealer should be able to answer that. My
instruments are from the late 1990s and are in the low 4xxxxxxx range.

The instrument seems to be made recently to me. just based on its cleanliness, the in tact buffet stamp (still in yellow lettering not faded) and the untarnished keys (though they are silver and probably could have been restored) For some reason when I bought it I was under the impression it was made in 2000 something but I dont remember why I thought that.
