Stolen Famous Guitars.

Was watching a documentary on Buddy Holly earlier on today and they mentioned his stratocaster, i never knew this but apparently he actually owned 4 in the few short years he had, 2 of them were stolen. Add this to the burns the shadows had stolen theres a few guitars missing out there, guitars that may never come to light

Jimi would probably have smashed it to bits or set it on fire anyway :roll:

The others would truly have been missed. :(

And let`s not forget Eric Clapton`s 1960 Gibson Les Paul, as used on John Mayalls Bluesbreakers famous "Beano" album.
Gibson is cashing in right now with their Custom Shop model of that same lost guitar.
