Early this morning my house was broken into, the robbers took EVERYTHING of value, computers, tv's, appliences excercise equippment and my basses. My beloved Bee Bass 7 string whom many here have seen in another thread is gone, I am at tears as I am left with 1 instrument, my practice amps are gone. I am asking ALL TB members to be watchful and I will find a way to post pics of the Bee shortly, until then, here is a description:

Bee Bass 7
ash body
birdseye top
birdseye fingerboard
ash headstock with birdsey matching top
ebony veneer
single Delano humbucker

Ibanez 6 string prestigeBASS IS FOUND!!!! I want to thank all of the TB'ers here who gave words of encouragement and offered to keep a look out, this is what makes me glad/proud to be a part of this online community. Again thanks to all.

Apparently the robbers planned on making another trip back to the house to get the stuff they could'nt carry on the first trip, so they put all the instruments on the back patio, probably so they could just come through the alley and grab them. One of the officers who was checking the perimiter actually found them neatly packed in the corner, THANK GOD!!! The police here wont dust for fingerprints in robberies any more so we're going to have to hire a private agency to do it, but for me, it will be worth the money spent. I cant say how it touched me to read three pages of support today as I had to wait until I got to work(home computers stolen). Thank you TalkBass.

If anyone happens to see, hear of, or know anything please PM me. Thanks in advance.

HOLY @#$%

I'm trying to put myself into your shoes. However, I can't grasp my mind around my baby being stolen. I'd probably cry myself to sleep for the next 2 years.
I'll keep an eye out for it, where do you live that can help out the TB community a lot.

Everybody keep your eyes peeled and your ears open.

Sorry to hear that man

EDIT: Post a pic so we know how it looks.

That really stinks. It's a pretty distinctive bass, should be difficult to sell without attracting notice. Hopefully the community here, or local to you, or the police, will help you get it back.

My sincerest condolences.

Sorry brother. I feel your pain. Get the word out to local music stores and pawn shops in 50 mile radius. Be hard to move a piece like that. It's unique and obviously an expensive looking axe. Be hard to pawn without attracting some attention.

I hope you find the rodents. It's probably somebody that knows you and knew you would not be home.

that sucks, my sympathies man

you just don't steal instruments, so i guess it aren't musiclovers like us. had the same thing at the place where we now rehearse in a couple of years ago. the guitars eventually showed up but the rest was gone. i think that's what's gonna happen. inform everybody you know, and show the picture of your (beautiful) bass.

stupid robbers, work for you money just like everyone of us!!!
