You're missing a digit from the front of that serial... there should be a letter there denoting factory.
Other than that, your guitar was made in 1983. I can't identify it further without a picture at least though...if at all.
Also, the thing about age with guitars...thats only true in a practical sense on acoustics.
On solid bodies because theres so much more wood there, the process is infinitely slower. You get much more softening and aging of tone from the magnets in the pickups weakening, the frets wearing over time, and the hardware like the nut being used over time than from the wood. (Although certain types of magnet don't age. Any alnico type magnets will, but ceramics age much slower.)
