CN609***

C stands for Cort Guitar Factory in Korea

N stands for Ninety and 6 stands for 6 (DOH!)

It was made in 1996 by Cort.

Hope that helps

I picked one up shortly ago. Somebody didn't know what they had. Found out that a few odd ones from China had this odd serial number starting with NC...
