I'd guess mid-90's.
The serial's weren't strictly sequential back then...but usually good for a ball park date.
(the date stamps are in the neck pocket ).
You could scan the registry for entries in a certain number range to see what other dates
are there, that can be helpful sometimes.

What's your gigging G&L instrument?
See the forum rules for details on posting photos and adding your G&L instruments to our G&L Registry.
To add to Elwood's reply, see this post in our G&L Knowledgebase: Serial number significance.
Show and tell are a must here.

Hi,thanks for the info,it's pretty much what I thought.My other G&L is an ASAT Classic in Candy Apple Red,matching headstock with Pearl plate.S/No is CLF39058. This is the most reliable guitar I've ever owned in over 40 years of playing!
