Just got my new to me Ric MG 4003. On the input jack plate the top number is 10 and the bottom number is 23350....would I be correct in assuming this was the 23350 instrument made in 2010?

I am at work and not sure if that picture is gonna show up....but I will certainly be taking more when I get home. Man the neck on this bass is quite a bit thinner feeling than my 2011 JG..... I dig it.
