Such a cool story. I somewhat sympathize. My EVH wasn't stolen , I sold it. And I cannot find it. I check daily. Also as soon as I heard that the great Folks at EBMM put out the the "solid gold" tribute, I had to have it. I just love the look of the Axis in a solid color. Although all I really want is the EVH Sunburst serial number 80850 built in December 1991, that I sold like a fool. If he can retrieve this guitar, maybe I still have hope finding mine.
