Guthrie Govan's Gear Stolen in Rome


Main Stage at the NEC Birmingham November 2006

Guthrie Govan reported on his Myspace Page that the van in which his equipment was being transported was breached in Rome, on December 17th. Amoung the items stolen were various instruments, amps, pedals and film footage from previous shows. So far, the Italian police haven't been able to develop and leads.

Humans should lead lives based on trust and humility but that is rarely how the world works. Anyone with any information leading to the recovery of some or all of this gear will be rewarded $1500. If you have information regarding this burglary; Please write to...         recuperostrumentigg@libero.it 
List of the stolen gear is as follows:
