7 digit serial hence MIJ, similar to a LC60 (1985).

Got in a 78 Fernandes Stone Logo strat made by Tokai.

That is cool. I am going to add it to the earliest Springys thread.

The Earliest Springys 1977-

I had another Fernandes stone logo in there but later than this one. Cool guitar!

 

[Puck Luck]

Thanks, glad to help Sigmania.

 

[Puck Luck]

Got another 78 in.

 

[Sigmania]

So interesting. I’m realizing that some of the gaps in the serial numbers I’ve gathered belong to guitars labeled as Fernandes.
