MM in CS serial number? a lil help here please

nakleh · 11-24-2008, 04:02 PM

Heyhey..

I'm looking at a CS356, and i'm confused about the serial number markings.. have a look.. what is the secondary serial number below, starting in MM?

That second M looks kinda sloppy.. can anyone shed a little light on this for me? THANKS!

How much is that 356? I know stingers are extremely expensive due to its value as a collector item.

If you have the chance to buy a Stinger, then do it.

LPCollector would be a good dude to PM about it.

The numbers check out...356 Cust Authentic, MM# 15

Without more pics it's hard to say, but serial number-wise o\it looks pretty good!

OH crap!

I'm here.........

How much is this being offered for?.....I promise, I won't buy it out from under you.

The Stinger Series are generally phenomenal guitars........my Stinger R9 is the best guitar I have ever owned.......period.

If you ask me....I'm gonna tell you to buy it.
