Its a LL3 and the serial number is 1958L. I've been told that it could be a 1998 model by the Emmons company, but they lost the warranty card and really didn't know 100%. This guitar at one time was Jack Strayhorns personal guitar ( so you know it sounds good ). I was also told by several different people that it was a 1999, 2000, 1997, and even a 2004 model. Thanks everyone in advance!!

I could not date the guitar exactly but with a serial number below 2000 it was definitely built prior to my leaving in Oct. 99'. I have serial number 2000 LeGrande II that was built in 98'. We were well into the 2000 series in 99'. How have they lost the warranty card? The were filled out at the shipping desk and immediately put into a file. Oh well, enjoy!

Thanks Mr. Strayhorn. I sent an email to Emmons to see if they could try to date it again. Thanks!
