Only 2 versions that I know of. The original that was built in the 90's, and the reissues are what they have had out for a few years. I have a reissue.

Original-USA
Reissue-Mexico

Not sure of exact years. Somebody will chime in soon, I'm sure.

I do know the reissues have variable bias, as opposed to the originals having a fixed bias.

I purchased a new one in early '97 from the GC in Chicago. Sold it in 2003 and have been kicking myself since.

There have been a number of limited-edition models marketed since production shifted from Corona to Ensenada. Most of them seem to have been fitted with different speakers and alternative cosmetic permutations. I don't think the basic chassis architecture changed though.
