I just got an e mail from TV Jones,where I get parts for my old Gretsch, saying that their entire display from Musikmesse in Frankfurt Germany was stolen.Among the stolen pickups etc. were several one off prototypes of guitars. They think that these guitars may end up anywhere in Europe so I thought I might pass on the info to our members across the pond to keep an eye out for TV Jones "bargains"you never know there may even be a reward. You can check out the inventory and pix at: www.tvjones.com .

That pisses me off. Maybe the culprits will be caught in France, and they can dust off the guillotine.

For realz.

It seems to happen every year, at the Messe.
Last year, there was a batch of 20 or 25 St. Blues guitars missing from Taranaki, their German distributor; never heard they traced any of them back.
Taurus, the guillotine is gone for some time now, but I feel you.

"from Musikmesse in Frankfurt Germany", can't be any more inside than that, they know every one, perhaps, that they should e-mail, I am with you guitslinger, real craziness always a surprise :shock:
