Guitar Center busts thief

Man this is the second story like this in a few weeks. It seems that some unsuspecting thief when he brought the stolen gear into the Covina Guitar Center. The gear was stolen from a school nearly a year ago and the local police had no leads.

This is a great story that demonstrates that if you steal gear, you can get caught. One more scumbag in lockup and more instruments back in the hands of some kids.

That is an awesome resource. I have a gear inventory worksheet that I use. This is helpful in documenting your gear so if it does get lost or stolen you have all of the info about the equipment.
