Agreed!

Man, Again that just sucks so bad, I agree so many people nowdays suck and have no respect for others, and i agree this forum is different, with great people who care, i so hope whoever is stealing these gets caught, most likely whoever is doing it is trading them for drugs, then the drug dealer is selling far away from your town or the thief is going into Kansas and Missouri where trust me the pawn shops dont care.

I think the GPS chip idea is a good one, hope it works out for you.

Read about that on the Petrucci forum.
Thats terrible.
There should be a donation for those whose get their gear stolen.
Like you prove that it was stolen and those that are that sympathetic can donate like five bucks to them.
Its a nice idea, but unfortunately there are plenty of people who are saving up for their own gear.
Anyhow, back on subject, hope you get your stuff back, its like losing an arm or a leg.
Best of luck to you.

Sorry to hear... this is one of my biggest fears. And it certainly isn't the monetary loss that bothers me, I would much rather have the instrument than the money it took to buy it (them). Good luck recovering.

[Twilight Zodiac]

I would too, but thats one of the ideal choices, right up there with not having it stolen in the first place. Just thought it would be nice.

I cringe whenever I see or hear the word "stolen". Sorry to hear about your loss, and I'm with you hoping for the best outcome. Hope you get them back and the thieves get what's coming to them.

Saw this on the JP board. Thieves are the scum of the earth. I hate them and can't imagine how ballistic I'd go if someone stole my guitars/amp!

Man that sucks to have 5 guitars stolen in 3 years, i'd hate to even think of one of my EBMM guitars getting stolen, but please don't give up guitar, Its always darkest before the dawn.

Good luck bro,

Scott.

Man I dont know what to say, only that they are just guitars, it could be much worse. I'm sure that doesnt help! So many guitars stolen though, that must be awful. Ive had 2 guitars stolen in the past, both Ibanez. It was no great loss, unlike a EBMM!

[Warg Master]

Any news? did you get the Iby back, and also, how'd that come about anyway?

[mesavox]

Basically, I a friend thinks she found it at a pawn shop. He said he wouldn't give any details over the phone and that he had to fill out the ticket and give it to the PD. I guess in Texas all tickets go to the PD. So, the guy investigating said that when that guy fills out the ticket, he'll know.

The thing I'm fearful of is that the pawn guy might have tipped the guy who brought it in... I dunno. I guess I'm just paranoid. I haven't called them because I don't want to put any more attention on the guitar until the ticket is turned in... or until I drive over there this weekend.

As of right now... no more news, but the officer said it could take till the end of the week. Why he doesn't go look... I dunno.

[DaPatrooch]

I'm extremely sorry to hear about that. I remember you posting about the new JP7 after having the previous one stolen. But anyway, the best of luck to you getting your stuff back, and I hope the people who stole them are found and arrested.

I f-ing hate people. Anyone who is low enough to steal anything should die, and I seriously mean that. You can't trust anybody these days.

[leftyguitarblue]

wow, that's terrible. I hope you get it back. It's such a horrible feeling to have something taken. Makes you feel so violated. Good luck my friend. I'll keep my eyes on ebay as well.

I got a guitar back almost 2 years after it was stolen.
As much as I hate:
Crack Whores
Scummy pawn shop dealers
Stupid Drummers
and
The system that keeps local law enforcement from doing the right thing

I have to be thankful for all of them. If it wern't for them I never would have gotten the guitar back.

I am also thankful for:
Honest people on eBay
Detectives that really try to do the right thing
and
This Forum
because they all helped me get the guitar back

I hope yours is about to show up.
