    LTD JH-200 fitted with EMG Zakk Wylde pickups(black)
    LTD EX-50 " " " " " " "
    Ibanez SZ520 (i think), blue, flame inlay at octave.
    Tanglewood Flying v fitted with EMG 89 at the bridge (white)

    There was also a collection of Swaovski jewellry stolen as well as:
    Samsung 46" LCD TV
    " BD-P1500 blu ray player
    Toshiba RD-XS35SE DVD recorder
    LG "tallboy surround sound system
    Sony DVD camcorder (with video of my babys 1st steps)

    There was other stuff taken too (feeling of security being the main thing) but thats the main stuff.
    If you come across any of this stuff please contact the local Garda. Thanks for your help and please pass the word to as many people, other forums etc as possible. I WANT MY GUITARS BACK!!!

    You can afford all that but no contents insurance? Either way I'll keep my ear to the ground, a mate of mine has asked me before if I was interested in some dodgy stuff, I'll ask him thursday or friday.

    That's terrible. I'd suggest getting in touch with all the music shops and give them a description as well as any photos you may have of them. Also post them up here.

    You can try putting the same message up on gigsmart and thumped.

    Here's hoping they're retrieved.

    Sh*t man, that's horrible! :(
    We were robbed 2 years ago, and "our stuff" was supposedly taken by a Dublin based family.group, despite us being in Longford. Pigs never got it back, but it shows that it can make it that far! I'll keep an eye out around here anyway incase anything comes up. I'll keep the eye out on teh interwebz too for you.

    Really sorry to hear that - I know the feeling.

    I had a very precious bass nicked a couple of years back.

    I checked through all the shops in Dublin but there was no sign of it.

    I eventually found that it has been sold to Beat It music near Dundalk, through no fault of the owner of the shop who get it back to me at a loss to himself as soon as it was all found out.

    Don't give up hope of getting it back, it took me 18 months before it was tracked down and returned.

    I'm not too far from Slane - so if I hear anything about it I'll let you know.

    Good luck.
