I'm gutted. 😭
Sunday morning someone broke into our rehearsal space and stole the most valuable gear there. Over $10k in amps and guitars (insurance will only cover a fraction of that). I suspect it might already be out of the country (Norway), headed to Eastern Europe, so I'm asking anyone and everyone to keep an eye out. It's a long shot, I know. So far no luck with a few feelers in the drug community (some guys that usually know about music gear being moved there).

The one item that would be quite easily recognized is my Verellen Meatsmoke.

It has a few custom features that I'm quite sure sets it apart from any other Meatsmoke, at least this particular combination.
• It has a tuner out next to the input.
• There are two switches on the right that bypass either the preamp or the power amp.
• It has a Jensen DI, output on the back.
• It also has a switch on the back that drops the power from 300W to 100W.

(They left the footswitch, though. It has a custom mute switch on it, but nevermind.)

Fender Precision Am Std 2011. Stock, except for the pickup - it has a Curtis Novak PB-90 fitted. A few stickers on the back, a Charles Manson sticker on the pick guard. Brown leather strap, wool padded. In a Mono M80 bag with a Mono Tick attached.

Rickenbacker 4003 Jetglo, probably late 90s/early 00s. A scratch on the top edge of the body, visible if you zoom in. Stolen in its original black case.

Italia Mondial Deluxe, probably late 90s/early 00s. Stolen in the original case (Italia branded). No particular defining marks known.

Orange TH30. Almost like new, no known defining marks.

If you come across any suspicious classifieds that you think could be this lot, especially the Verellen and the Fender, please contact me at [email protected] or find me on Facebook - Hans Kristian Senneseth. Or PM me here. Help that leads to the gear being recovered will be rewarded.

Thank you so much for your time. I don't have much hope, but it's worth a shot.
