I'll keep an eye out for you in Singapore. Instrument thieves are right up there on my "to break fingers" list next to car scratchers.

If i see it here in Norway, ill of course tell you. i doubt im gonna see it though..

I have been thinking of getting insurance on my basses, but i dont gig enough or take em to places they can be stolen to often..

 

[j-raj]

Thank you guys for all of your help, I have been putting up posters at various music shops, pawn shops and a few of the bars that I play in.

...if we can't find it, who's up for starting a fund to get him a replacement just like it?

*rubs eyes*
wow, did I read that right ?

 

[Obese Chess]

-nod nod nod-

you did indeed.

 

[JOME77]

Man! Real bummer j-raj!

I was hoping that by the time I got to the bottom of the Thread it would have been found.......

I'll keep my eyes open around the Macon GA area just in case it makes it's way south....

I'd be up for that. I'd put in however much I could. Jai, I feel for you man!

I'm in for at least $50. Jai, just let me know.

 

[Eric Perry]

Yeah, the $50 I pledged earlier for the reward fund I'd gladly donate for a replacement as well.

 

[CraigG]

Sure is a beauty. Would make me sick if it were mine and some creep stole it. Guess I should be more content (and thankful) I only buy inexepensive basses. I hope it turns up for you soon - at least I can't imagine anyone wanting to do anything destructive to an instrument like that.

 

[joelb79]

I'd be in for $50 for a replacement. You should get a Roscoe

 

[EBMatt]

I'm down to add $50 to the fund. Let's get something official going.

I would be so burnt if someone stole one of my babies. J-raj, I'm sure it will work out in the end. And if it doesn't we will get it to work out.

Since I'm not an official supporting member, my PM box is overflowing - [email protected] with your name and how much you're good for.

I'll email Chris and see what wait time and whatnot would be like.

Xan if you're cool with it, I'll start a topic on every board here about it and I'll give them your TB account name and Gmail address and tell them to contact you not me, you down for that?

 

[fenderhutz]

I am always in Pawn Shops and music stores in WV and also in used shops in the WASH DC area. I would notice something like that and will keep my eyes open. Good Luck. Most pawn shops have a 1 week to 4 week waiting period once something is pawned. Something of this caliber would probably show up on the pawn shops ebay account instead of in the store due to value and getting the most money for the item.

Are you keeping an eye on Ebay and Craigslist as well?

Go for it. Just make sure they don't PM me - my box is full

J, man what can be said. If my pink ivory Acacia ever disappeared it'd be like I lost a kid. But more importantly I'm very glad you're alright. One of my friend's uncles (Mike Bany, a very talented bassist) was killed outside of a club here in cincinnati after a friday night gig 4 days after christmas '95 when a low life piece of sh!t thug tried to take his $100 in gig money and his bass. I think we'll have another bass about paid for here shortly, we could never replace you!

In a lighter note add $25 to the reward fund from me! I probably owe you at least that much for tru-voice repairs or chiropractor visits from lugging around my old Epifani 4x10! And I've got this end of I-75 on lock down for you. If it passes through Cincy I will find out about it!

You got my $50.00.

I have a friend here who had two USA Laklands stolen.

He searched the city and found both of them in two different pawn shops.

So don't give up...

I've got Buttmunch's (inside joke) back and will match his donation. On a side note, Justin, did you ever get your Dingwall?

Thanks Joe,
Not sure if the cat that stole it is heading north or south, but an extra pair of eyes is always good... If I play another gig at the Hummingbird or 550 Blues, I'll give you a shout.

I'm in for at least $50. Jai, just let me know.

Thanks man, that really means a lot!

Thank you Eric! How's the Conklin treat'n you?

Thanks Joel, I'm still using that ear piece I bought a while back.

Thank you Matt, did you ever sell that sexy Blue Sadowsky?

Justin, thank you my brother from the other side of route 75... yeah, that Epi rig is REALLY heavy, but it's worth it, it sound like a freight train coming through the stage!!

I can't believe that thugs are willing to kill for a musician's gig $. I'm sorry to hear of that event.

You got my $50.00.

Thanks SuperTanker! I have A friend of mine runs his family's pawn shop here in the Atlanta area and he is really helping to get the word out to the Georgia Pawn Desk and in 17 counties around...

Thanks Chris! When are you coming through town? Give my best to your dad.
