'57 Gretsch Duo Jet and Martin 0021

Post by tubeswell »

Stolen from Wellington just recently. They hopefully won't get too far. These belong to a M8 of mine and she wants 'em back ASAP, so if anyone has any info, please send me a PM. TIA

Cheers

Pete

Fairly obscure guitar. It's going to stick out like dog's balls

They just got added to the Rockshop Stolen Goods website ... sounds like the owner is pretty cut up about them.
Yup - that's me and my pal Steve or little stevie vai as I like to call him. In Auckland airport when I was 26. I'm not 26 anymore.

That Martin was purchased in 1964 when Carol visited a store with her guitar teacher.... one Ry Cooder. So it's way more than just an old Martin.... I'm gutted for her. :(
