A shot of his guitar with the State Troopers would be priceless

It certainly is nice to read a story like this that has a happy ending. Hopefully the state police will start questioning the folks who had the TP and will be able to establish a chain of possession which leads back to the thief. Props to you for keepting the COA and a record of the serial number seperately from the guitar itself. Without this it would probably have been much more difficulty to establish that you were the owner.

Here she is in great company tonight or early morning! State Police called and said when do you want to pick it up, how about right now! It looks great and now I'm waiting to hear where this person got it from! I want to thank RickResource for providing an awesome site for every facet of Rick life and more, this is a great community! Thanks again to all the well wishers!!!

Paul

Although mine was not stolen, I got my 360/12 back after 13 years so I know how you feel to get a old friend back
