  1. Seeing that it's much easier to get back your gear if you know where it is, we developed a new phone app - GPSRoadie.

     

    The app uses smartphone's GPS and cellular tech to create a virtual fence around the phone. Put the phone in an instrument case, tour van or tour trailer and that is now protected. If it's stolen, location alerts are sent every 60 seconds to people you choose.

     

    The app also broadcasts stolen alerts, hopefully helping more people get back their stolen gear.

     

    On the Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=appinventor.ai_gpsroadie.GPSRoadie

  7. Another Black Beauty stolen.

    Stolen Alert – Raleigh, NC – Gibson Les Paul Black Beauty Serial # LE896405

    I have had this guitar for forty years and played it in my band back in the early ’80′s. And until its theft played for pleasure while working on a collection of songs for a possible album.

    I try not to let it bother me, but at times it is nearly impossible.

    Thanks for your help trying to get her back,

    Maxx

    This guitar was stolen along with the hard case Sunday 18 March 2012 from my office on Powell Drive here in Raleigh near fairgrounds. Help to recover this instrument. Offering cash reward for its return. No questions asked.

    Serial # LE896405 Les Paul Custom “Black Beauty”.

  8. Stolen Alert - Winston-Salem, NC - Gibson Howard Roberts Fusion, Taylor 814ce LTD. Cocobolo back and sides

     

    My Guitar is known in my circle of musician friends as "HOWARD" he's a heavy old chunk of wood but plays as good as any guitar you could imagine. Heck over the years I have worn the finish off the backside of the entire length of the bottom of the neck. I recently installed a new set of alnico 5 pickups, you want to talk about a sweet scream, oh yeah. Any way this guitar along with my trusted Taylor feels like losing two loved ones at the same time, almost unbearable and hard to take.

     

    While the Taylor is replaceable ($ gulp $), my HOWARD is not. While not a super high dollar old guitar, a 1980 Gibson Howard Roberts Fusion certainly is a rarity that will reveal himself every time the case is opened. You just don't see many of them because they are embraced by their owners.

     

    This owner wants his HOWARD back.

    Thanks Bobby Kiger.

     

    During the early morning the 2nd of May, 2014 an individual or individuals stole 2 guitars from my home in the Rural Hall NC (Winston-Salem) area...

     

    1. 1980 Gibson Howard Roberts Fusion (semi hollow body electric)

    2. 2002 Taylor 814ce LTD. Cocobolo back and sides with flame maple binding, fishman electronics.

     

    I will make it worth while for...

    1. For safe return of guitars

    2. For the arrest and conviction of said person or persons.

     

    Musicians and concerned individuals, PLEASE share this for me. I want my guitars back, especially the Gibson. I Have proof of ownership. Please contact me or

    "Well we played an amazing show last night! But shortly after our hearts were broken when we went out to the car to find a window smashed and 3 of our guitars missing. Some low life scum bag felt the need to ruin someone elses night for their own selfish reasons, well those guitar were priceless to us and all i can say is i hope you get what you deserve, karma's a bitch. Each guitar was a part of us and we hope that we will see them again. But we will make a recovery from this a move forward!"

  13. Stolen Alert - San Francisco, CA - Jazz Bass, Mopho x4 synth, Novation Impulse 49, Demeter Bass amp

     

    While it's always terrible to have gear stolen—especially when it's how you make your living—the Jazz Bass that I lost Saturday night is of particular importance to me. A close friend of mine gave it to me in late 2010. He barely played, and kindly thought I could get more use out of it than he ever would. About a month later, my generous friend Steve died in a head-on collision with a drunk-driver.

     

    I've played that bass on many records, and taken it around the world on tour. Each time I pick it up, I think of Steve. It's my living connection to him, and I had looked forward to making music with it for the rest of my life. I could care less about the money. In some small way, Steve feels alive through that instrument. To have lost it is a terrible blow.

     

    It's pretty distinctive looking. Hard to miss. Cash reward for its safe return, absolutely no questions asked. Thanks.

     

    Stolen:

    1975 Fender Jazz Bass (Sea Foam Green w/ white binding, white block inlays, white pickguard)

    Dave Smith Instruments Mopho x4 synth

  16. Stolen Alert - Chicago, IL - Van With All of Band's Instruments

     

    The band Go Deep just had their van with all of their instruments stolen. Here's the story and the list of stolen gear.

     

    My van was stolen yesterday in Chicago with everything Danny and I own in it, along with 4 friends’ guitars/personal items/passports. We’ve been away from home for nearly 6 months. Touring from New York to Florida, then out to LA. Stayed in LA for 3 months to write and record a full length while living in the van. And then planned to tour back through Canada finishing in NY.

     

    We got through Canada but lost everything yesterday in Chicago. The window was smashed out, and the van was taken in broad day light near Wicker Park. Total of somewhere near $25k worth of amps, guitars, recording equipment, and personal belongings. We don’t have any type of insurance that will cover any of these losses. I’m going to try to update photos of all of the gear…I’ll post what would be most noticeable if it popped up somewhere around Chicago or anywhere.

     

    Also, Some people have reached out wanting to donate. It’s truly amazing how supportive friends have been. If you want to help out at all there is a paypal at godeepny@gmail.com

     

    Most of the gear, including the van, I bought from sleeping on my floor for 6 months while renting my room on airbnb and working full time at a Japanese restaurant. Danny incurred about 10k in debt buying recording equipment to finish the Mason Avery (His other project) record over the past 6 years that is now lost, as the four copies of mixes are on harddrives/computers/laptops in the van. Luckily, the Go Deep record is backed up in LA. We are feeling generally sick after pushing so hard to make music happen in our lives. If you want to help out, hit us on the paypal. Everything helps, and it will go directly to getting us back to being touring musicians.

     

    If you have any questions regarding anything or have any leads, email me at kris.kneale@gmail.com or get me on facebook. I’m gonna go buy a sweater now. It was cold last night.
