Had you originally posted the number in the above form I would have recognized it as a batch number - as you state, Gibson didn't use serial numbers on their low-end instruments until later in their production runs - which, although it's somewhat less specific than a serial number, at least provides a fairly good idea of when a particular guitar was made...
Sorry for the confusion...
