My CS strat was built by Kenny Gin in 1997 and above his signature on the neck and body where they connect together there's printed the word Cosmo, What does that mean or why is it there?

Maybe a Dealer's Limited Edition made for the Canadian Music Store Cosmo...

Thanks...that's a strong possibility. The Canadian CS dealer I bought it from said it came out of a collection kept behind glass by some rich guy in the USA. Story has it the rich guy had someone go to CS in Corona to hand select woods etc.on all his collection which he has now sold off. It's ash and weighs 6.8lbs and the birdsye maple neck is one of the best I've seen and it's 100% mint but the story could be a bunch of BS. I've contacted Kenny Gin because Fender records are limited though they provided me with the specs etc.
Personally I think your answer is probably correct. I'm contacting Cosmo Music to ask if they keep records of guitars ordered and sold.
