So, how can I tell what year it is if the serial number isn't on the list? Serial # starts with MN8- followed by six digits. Also, are there different MIM models like DELUXE and Standard?

That would be a 98 or 99 model.

Wow! Pretty amazing, not a scratch on it except a little rust (or Yeagermeister) on the bridge.

I guess the fact that the S/N list said + five digits and this little devil has + six kinda threw me.
