Thanks for the quick response.
I bought it second hand. I don't know which pickups are installed. I opened the Guitar to try to see which pickups are installed but there is no brand or serial number. But it sounds really good.
Strange was when I saw that it was stamped 10/15/84.

Thank you
Thanks for the additional photos.
The serial number is G039711.
I have emailed one of my contacts at G&L to get the factory log info on this guitar.
I am quite certain that the date stamper was set wrong on the year. It should have been set to 1994.
Stay tuned.
Hi Craig,
Production date on the candy apple red Legacy with a maple neck is September 27th 1994, body wood is alder, the pickups might be the Seymour Duncans, the only way to tell is by lifting the pick guard off the body and checking each pickup for the Seymour Duncan “SS” initials followed by a number on the back of the pickups. If no initials are found then they are the CLF 100’s made in Fullerton. The standard neck on this was a 1-5/8” nut width, 12” radius (the #1nk neck). If you have any further questions please email me back, all the best.
Best Regards,
Memo Romero

Thanks for the answer.
I spoke with the previous Guitar owner and he says that the guitar is all original except for pickups.
But if the serial number indicates a red legacy I believe!!?
The pickups are not CLF100 for sure.
Is there a possibility that the serial number is wrong too?
If they stamped the wrong date 3 times on a guitar
I have a G&L S-500. I am sure this is all original!!
Don't you mind if i send you some pictures to see if you can indicate the year of manufacture?
Thanks very much for everything
