Hi, I did a quick search in the registry for serial numbers in the range CL02500 - CL0600 and there are a couple of L2500 basses in that range, one in particular has a neck and body date of 1998

The CLxxxxx serial number format was used only in late 1997-1998.liotcik wrote:Hello,

If this is all original as the factory built, then the seller is mistaken about
the build year of 2002.
I would ask the seller if he has the neck and body build dates. There should be
a date on the neck heel and inside the neck pocket. It's possible that a previous owner
replaced the neck with an older neck.
Did you see this note on the auction?: --No International Shipping--
Hope this helps.
