SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
Last night someone smashed my truck window and smashed my Ampeg Head on the street and stole my Rickenbacker. If anyone comes across a 1980 Burgundy Rickenbacker 4001 w/ a Badass Bridge II on it and Serial Number TH 3349 on this forum or ebay or craigslist or any forum please let me know. Thanks you everyone

Will do. Where did this happen? I'm really sorry to hear it. Is it in the registry? If so you can tag it as stolen.
All I wanna do is rock!
Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
Wow. Very sorry. Like Kira asked, it might be helpful to know the area of the country you live in.

Major bummer! Please, do put your bass in the register as stolen, that makes it easier to recognize should it show up somewhere. I hope you get it back soon!
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...
Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
Wow. I'm sorry to hear this and I can relate to how you feel. (They stole our motorbike (bmw r1100GS) half a year ago. The bike is back now though with some repair necesary.)

Sorry to hear the news.

Geez, sorry to hear about this. I hope you recover your 4001.
The JETGLO finish name should be officially changed to JETGLO ROCKS!

Sorry to hear this. It is a;ways a good idea to never, ever leave a guitar or bass in a locked vehicle.

Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
I get so mad when I read things like that......even if you´ve got a inchurance on your instrument and can be compensated some of the economical,loss that is one thing....but for many musicans the instrument will be a very personal thing you sorta grove together.
I really hope you´ll get your bass back.
Best wishes Dan.

Renter's, homeowner's, and many auto policies cover this kind of loss, minus your deductible, of course.
Bro, you must have inchurance!

Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
Thats horrible. Update the register here, start watching ebay, and start watching global craigslist (there are websites that let you search globally on craigslist incase they list elsewhere). I'm not sure how one would approach local pawn and guitar shops though, before or after police report? Don't even tell them in case they get it so you can get it back? Anyone have experience with this?
Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
Wow that sucks - and you just got that one didn't you? As others have said where did this dastardly thing happen? So do do a police report if not done yet. I guess we are not allowed to draw and quarter or tar and feather any longer... so try to do the law thing. Maybe do some posters and get to local pawn shops and music stores. Really sorry to hear this Jake. Good luck getting it back.

Re: SOMEONE STOLE MY RIC
I just got done with a gig and was celebrating, stopped by the lake where my buddies were partyin at. Parked my truck and locked it all up and jsut went up there for about 20 minutes to have a beer and to celebrate from having a great gig. Get a phone call from a buddy saying these guys that left the party were ****** about my friends talking to there girls and that they took my bass and smashed my ampeg. Tomorrow I'm going to all the pawn shops in the area with a flyer of the description, and pictures of it. Hopefully these idiots will try and Pawn it and get caught. I can see them doing 3 things. 1. Go and Pawn It 2. Smash it just like the Ampeg or 3. Play it themselves. Ill try all these ideas and get the bass back if I can. Ill update you all. Thanks for everything and the support guys. Really appreciate it!

Jake,
Sorry to hear about the incident. City, and country would help a lot. We have eyes and ears all over the world as part of this forum community.
