Serial Number Help

#436361. Any ideas? Thanks.
If it is about a USA Hamer, then it has been built in 1994.

4 36361

The first digit represents the year of manufacture.

The digits thereafter are the actual serial number. So this is the 36361st USA Hamer built with a serial no.

The four digit Standards do not fit into this system, and also some USA Hamers have been manufactured without a serial no.

Roughly when the last five digits are above 50.000 the guitar is from the 2000's, if they are below 50.000 it is a 90ies guitar.

Edited to add:

from Ken of Seattles HamerGuitarAddict.com:

The serial numbering sequence by decade is below: 

1970s: 7 0001 - 9 1450

1980s: 0 1451 - 9 24192

1990s: 0 24193 - 9 50155

2000s: 0 50156 - end of production
