Go to MSA's Web site and send them the serial number. They have all Mr. Anderson's MSA records. They have been great at finding the Birth Date and other information on MSA guitars.

I'd guess it to be a 1978 model.

I’ve got a maple laquer s10 made around the same time! Serial number 1C5618
It’s a tank, but has served me well. Finally getting around to changing out the pickup to get a little more top end out of it:

At 1 time I owned a MSA S10 White Formica 4X4 SN 1C2921. Mr. Anderson said, "It was born July 9, 1974".
