I'm not sure about the exact dates, but I just picked up one built in 1980, so these dates they posted may be for a reissue of some kind.

Alvarez re-used model numbers as they changed product lines. The "Artist" series was launched in the mid-90's. I have a '76 5014 and in those days is was called the Alvarez "Folk Flat Top".
