Hi Everyone,

Please keep your eyes peeled for any internet sale auctions for the following instruments:

Serial # Model description

E53605 StingRay 5 in black, rosewood non-matching headstock, black p/g
E55530 30th Anniversary StingRay model
G32152 Silhouette Special HSS w/trem, vintage sunburst, maple non-match, white pearl p/g
G32158 Petrucci 6-string, Pearl Redburst, rosewood non-matching no inlays
G32215 Silhouette HSH with tremolo in white, rosewood matching headstock, black p/g

If anyone finds any information about these instruments at all or even if you see a group of them on Ebay under one seller, please PM me. These are STOLEN goods.

Thank you so much for your help, everyone.
All the best,
Beth
 
that is BS that people cant go out and work for thier guitars...they have to steal them!!

i hope you catch the Ba***ds!!!!
 
Hi Everyone,

Thanks so much for keeping an eye out. The story is long and drawn out and frustrating -- IMO, I don't even think the person who stole them knew what they were stealing, it was just stuff to steal. Keep an eye out for pawn shops in the LA area...

Thanks again,

What Jerks. That's one worry always in the back of my mind especially while I'm at work. Luckily my wife is home w/ our son so I don't worry as much.
 
Hi Everyone,

Check for Santa Barbara area sales too...

*bump*

Ok, revision:

It was not actually a 30th Anniversary StingRay that went missing -- we found that one. The one that is actually missing is a SUB 4-string, serial #X15236, an active one in Textured Red with a diamond plate pickguard.

Also, keep your eyes peeled on the Central Coast up there -- it seems now that the instruments must have sprouted legs and walked away in that part of California, rather than the LA area.

Thank you everyone!
-Beth
