Make sure to scour Craigslist and other classifieds ads around the Toronto area. Visit every pawnshop.

Info on Musician

I would rather not say who the musician is, yes he is in a band.

any photos of the bass? I don't know if you'd like to share them, but if I knew what I was looking for, then I could keep an eye open for it.

Yeah, watch Kijiji VERY closely for a couple months. I once tracked down a $6,000 camera kit that was stolen from my work on Kijiji. With about 45 minutes of internet sleuthing, I had the thief's name, address, and even a photo of him. We phoned the cops, and the boss posted flyers around his neighbourhood(with his photo on them), saying that if anybody wanted to buy/sell stolen merchandise, they should call him. He admitted to the cops that he sold the gear, but demanded that they press charges against us over the flyers. They informed him that there was nothing illegal about posting the flyers, particularly since he admitted that their contents were accurate.

I hope we find his bass, and if we do I will definitely let everyone know. Thanks for all the advice and information.

We really appreciate everyone being so helpful.

I found this link on Kijiji Ottawa for a Warwick Thumb. It would be worth to take a look.
