It's a long story, but my girlfriend who is manic depressive took it out of my apartment and doesn't remember what she did with it. She left it somewhere in the apartment building, so some scumbag must have taken it.

If I had found something that obviously was not thrown out, I would have given it to the super. Not this person. :mad:

Got a call from Edmonton police (I'm in Toronto) last week, it arrived at the Purolator office this morning.

Glad you got your guitar back. I was just about to post because I think your guitar appeared on the Edmonton Kiji list this week! I was going to phone about it. :eek: Is this it:

How on earth did it get from Toronto to Edmonton and how did the Edmonton Police know to phone you?

I knew a guy who had one of these. Nice tone.
But I was a snob at the time, and wanted to wait for a "REAL" Les Paul.
Too bad--my attitude has mellowed since then.


Glad you got it back.

I reported it to the Toronto fuzz, the Edmonton guy must have seen it on the cop computer.

Well, I guess I'll never buy a used guitar or amp without running the serial number by the police first.
