Original:
A musician is searching for his lost guitar that was stolen in 91大黄鸭.
Sveinson鈥檚 2008 Gibson Les Paul Standard VOS 1958 reissue was stolen Saturday, May 26 during the loading of equipment at Konquer Motorcycles after his performance with Aviator Shades at a Rock and Ride event.
The musician鈥檚 Facebook post, which provides details on the guitar, has been shared nearly 2,000 times.
鈥淚t鈥檚 a guitar that I鈥檝e had since I was 16-years-old. I鈥檝e put a quarter-million kilometres on that guitar touring鈥� it鈥檚 just one of those guitars that hold a lot of special memories. Insurence can always cover a replacement but it certainly can鈥檛 get that guitar back. When you put that many hundred hours into something it becomes a part of you.鈥�
The Vancouver musician estimated it was stolen occurred between 11:30 p.m. and 12 a.m.
The guitar鈥檚 serial number is 881333 and the instrument has 鈥淕rover tuners, a case (Gibson USA, non-custom shop) with no handle and lots of play wear,鈥� according to the Facebook post.
A $2,000 reward is being offered by Bernie Aubin of Canadian Classic Rock for the guitar鈥檚 return.
