Hello all, my Stingray 5 was stolen a few years back from Columbus Ohio. I filed a police report and have followed up but never had a hit. The serial number is 57301. It's cherryburst with a clear pick guard and a rosewood fretboard. If anyone knows anything or has suggestions I'd love to get it back. Thanks.
 
I filed the police report 3/30/2017. It's possible that was the Columbus PD detective but maybe not? I called it cherryburst because it's not a traditional sunburst. It fades from a dark red-orange in the center to a very dark red at the edges.
 
The police report was filed in March and the SN request on the forum was 3 months later? If the case is still open, I would ask the detective to look into the email address used to create that Maphz account.
