90's Starfire III dating help

[Benny]

I'm going to be selling this beauty and trying to date it. They SN is AG301450 and online sources show SNs up to 1999 and stop at AG301083. Logic says mine is a 2000 but I'm curious if there is any more to it. The guitar does have the SD-1 pickups. I'm not sure if there are other changes in those years. thanks for any help

The on-line serial number charts for Guild are full of mistakes and they are not complete. Your Starfire III was completed during the year 1998.

Good luck!

I wouldn't mind dating this guitar, but not sure if my current ones would let me. I'll check.
