This past weekend a wearhouse in Dublin, Ireland containing over $130,000 worth of Fenders and Gibson guitars were stolen. The website below lists the guitars and the serial numbers, so please make sure you check these before you bid or puchase a new guitar where the origins are suspect. They may try move these on Ebay or other auction sites so please keep an eye out for them if you can. Thanks a lot guys.

H0ly Cr@p! That's a lot of inventory.

Hope you get it all back and the thief is caught and hung by his thumbs.

_________________
In my opinion Leo Fender had essentially perfected the guitar amplifier by 1964.

How do they know that the guitars were damaged during the theft? And damaged enough to be considered "worthless"?

I'll bet that it was Yngwie, he didn't have enough guitars in his collection.

Por favor, disculpe mi español, no se llega a la práctica con mucha frecuencia.

I am pretty sure a lot of them will pop up on evilBay sooner or later.

Cheers,
Robin

I don't see 130,000 dollars worth of guitars but that still sucks. I hope it was insured.

They're still trying to compile the list so as they update it I'll pass it on. They very much appreciate your help in this matter.

Thanks

You got people from all over the world here. ebay is one thing, but if it goes out of the country it would be a logical thing to sell it on a national website. Same as a lot of cars and stuff that disappear from Norway every year and got sold in other parts Europa, big thing on the news over here some while ago. So I'll be checking finn.no in Norway some times to give my support.

Yes. I buy and sell quite a bit. Gladly will keep an open eye for you.

Jesus, that's a lot of gear! Hope they catch the dirty thief(ves?) who did this.

Have there been any other stuff like this in your country lately? Then the Police may track they're route. And I'll suggest that they call some of the shipping company and tell them to keep an eye out if they want to cooperate.

Have you found them yet?

This blows. Celtic I would post this on the Gearpage forum and Harmony Central if you haven't already. Hope they catch these people. They're on an island for goodness sake don't let anybody off until they find them....
