`My jamspace has been broken into and we are missing 17 guitars and two amplifiers, nearly $20,000 in gear. Possibly more but that is off the top of our heads. In the 17 guitars that are missing are:

1972 Gibson SG.
The SG is all original with factory bigsby, the nut that holds the strap on the ass end is fully stripped and does not hold the screw. Other than that it's in perfect shape.
2008 Gibson Les Paul Classic.
The Les Paul is tobacco burst, single cutaway, factory pickups, no mods except for grover tuning heads and a very faded Alternative Tentacles sticker on the back.

I have no money to buy it back and I still haven't even paid off the the SG. I have no faith it will actually get back to me. Both of these items are worth equal amounts of sentimental and monetary value to me. Help if you can. Effected bands are Piggy, Vicious Cycles, Greenback High, Jolts, Les Spelles and more. I'm totally gutted. Please share. I understand the futility of dealing with losses like this but help us out if you can. A full list of stolen items will be posted soon.` - Fri, 18 Apr 2014 8:28am

`STOLEN GEAR! Our jam space was broken into sometime in the last 24 hours and my Japanese made 'Rogue Custom Bass' in a teardrop shaped guitar case was one of SEVENTEEN guitars stolen. Also missing for me is a Univox Les Paul style guitar (honeyburst), a Japanese made 'Granada' blonde Jazz bass and a Mexican Fender Precision, sunburst, serial number MZ8033589. Please keep an eye peeled and CALL ME if you see even what you THINK might be one of the above instruments for sale. .`

` STOLEN BASSES, taken from my jam space in the last 24 hours.

Fender Precision Vintage reissue. Sunburst, reverse style tuners, gold anodized pickguard, mexican made. Purchased from Joseph Lubinsky-Mast, played by Johnny Wah. Serial # MZ8033589

Rogue 'Custom Bass' 70's Japanese Fender P Bass knock off. Sunburst, black pickguard. Teardrop hardshell case.

Granada Jazz style bass. Blonde, black pickguard, obvious holes above/below the bridge where an ashtray style cover was. Japanese made. Vintage black case with silver trim.
My band practice space got broken into last night. The Vicious Cycles, The Jolts, Piggy, Greenback High, Les Spelles all lost gear. In total we lost around 17 guitars and 2 or 3 amps. Probably around $20,000 worth. I am going to be collecting photos of the guitars and amps from the guys and girls that lost them and will post them here. Please help me out by

1. Reposting this.
2. Watching for those guitars.
3. Donating some money to us at [email protected] (paypal or email money to it)

A couple of the guys lost around $5000 worth of gear, and I would really like to help them recover some of it. Some of the guitars still have a lot of money to be paid on them.

Thanks for your help.
