Afaik 2 stolen Ricks were discovered by forum members. Both were discovered on eBay and both were sold by pawn shops.

I suggest going around to the local pawn shops looking for it and scanning the bay on a daily basis.
So long and thanks for all the fish!

Sorry to welcome you to the Forum under such tough circumstances, Cyrus. It might help if you read through this thread:

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=390241

There are a lot of good suggestions and advice in that thread, it might help. I hope that your guitars are successfully recovered.

Cyrus: I am sorry to hear of your misfortune. We will keep a close watch now that your instruments have been listed on the Register as stolen.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Cyrus, it is unfortunate that your first post here has to be a report about your stolen Ricks. You can rest assured that folks here will keep a look out for you.

So sorry to hear that. I hope they're swiftly recovered and returned to you, and I hope the perpetrator gets caught and prosecuted :evil:
