“[We want] to recover the guitars and sell them to people who actually want to play them”: $80,000 worth of vintage guitars have been stolen from Guitar House of Tulsa. Now the owner – and Joe Bonamassa – are appealing for your help
By Matt Parker, Guitar World / Yahoo | Over $80,000 worth of vintage guitars have been stolen from a Tulsa, Oklahoma guitar store, and now the owner, Drew Winn, is appealing for help in retrieving the missing instruments. The store in question, Guitar House of Tulsa, was raided around 10:50 p.m. on Saturday night (January 6) and thieves made off with a haul of 15 vintage and high-end instruments, including several valuable Gibson acoustic guitars and an array of rare electric guitars.
Winn has since taken to social media to share the full list and serial numbers of the missing guitars, among them a 1954 Gibson J-200, 1969 J-160E, a 1996 left-handed Gibson Les Paul Goldtop, 2012 PRS Private Stock McCarty, and a 1979 Hamer Standard Flame Top Sunburst.
You can view the full list [at the link] below, but suffice to say many of the stolen guitars are very distinctive – for instance, the lefty Goldtop reissue and Gibson Les Paul Custom in an unusual orange (aged ‘Kumquat’ Yellow) finish.
