yorks5stringer Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) Quite a selection of lefties plus some incongruous r/h choices too as shown in the post below! Edited July 14, 2022 by yorks5stringer Quote
Bolo Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Err, what kind of link is that? I shouldn't have clicked on it but it's before my morning coffee. Opened some sort of faux mail programme? Quote

Opened some sort of faux mail programme? Woops sorry, they sent me an email and I C&P'd it without thinking of screen-shotting it, luckily Velarian is much more sensible than me! BTW It was just 'Outlook' that the link sent you to, so not malicious..... Edited July 14, 2022 by yorks5stringer 1 Quote
Dood Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 I used to work for a guitar mag recording gear videos based opposite DV247. Considering their security, it must have been a tough time getting in! 1 Quote
Nail Soup Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Maybe someone told the thief to keep taking guitars until they had nothing left. I'll get me coat...... 1 5 Quote

Reggaebass Posted July 15, 2022 Posted July 15, 2022 I’ve been there many times , they got lots of equipment there and it’s quite a good shop for basses, nice practice room to try them out, although it’s on a small industrial park it looks really secure, I’m surprised someone managed to get in Quote
MattW Posted July 15, 2022 Posted July 15, 2022 I was actually in there the following day as they had a couple of guitars in stock that a friend wanted to try out. There were no obvious signs of a break-in at the shop (e.g. boarded up windows), so I wonder if they were taken from the stock room/warehouse. Quote
rasher80 Posted July 15, 2022 Posted July 15, 2022 Good luck shifting those left handers. Absolute idiots. Quote
Saul Panzer Posted July 15, 2022 Posted July 15, 2022 Seems like a weird choice to steal those, lefties are the niche subset of an already niche instrument whose community has a thing about calling out stolen gear and alerting other players. Quote

I'm guessing opportunists who accessed the stockroom and just grabbed whatever they saw first. Quote
uk_lefty Posted July 15, 2022 Posted July 15, 2022 Maybe the stockroom has a lot of mirrors in it and they all looked right handed... But little did they know...! 3 Quote

Deep breath..... Then I am in complete agreement with you Mr Bunion Well said !! Quote
