We are asking all of our friends to get the word out via blogs, forums, any means possible. In the hope that we can retrieve these rare stolen instruments, pickups, and tools. Basically everything that was on display in Frankfurt was stolen (even our banners, suits & suitcases!). Here is a rundown of the stolen items (scroll down to view photos):

• TV Jones Model 10 Prototype Guitar in tobacco sunburst w/P90 pickups (one-of-a-kind)
• TV Jones Model 10 Prototype in natural toffee w/ T-Armond pickups in P90 mount (one-of-a-kind)
• TV Jones Model 10 in Ice Blue w/single bridge pickup
• TV Jones Model 10 in Red w/single bridge pickup
• TV Jones Model 10 in Matte Black w/ 2 pickups
• TV Jones Model 10 in Tobacco Sunburst w/ 2 pickups
• several sets of pickups
• all of our banners and display materials
• various luthier tools

More info and serial numbers to come. If you have any information please contact us at (360) 779-4002 or info@tvjones.com. If you come across any of these guitars please call your local police. Here are some photos of the stolen guitars:

blonde ‘butterscotch’ finish Model 10 one-of-a-kind prototype with T-Armond pickups in P90 Mount. Thank you J Dennis Thomas for the photo.

A dark tobacco burst Model 10 one-of-a-kind prototype with P90 pickups (Tom’s personal favorite). If you see either of these two prototype guitars they are definitely stolen!!

The guitars below are production models, but if you see any of these in or around Frankfurt, Germany they are most-likely stolen!!
