Poor guy had his custom stolen off the subway. (I think that might even be one of Mark's little inlays in it)

My Alastair Miller guitar was stolen Tuesday night (Jan 27) on the subway between Lansdown and Islington Station. The logo is on the headstock and reads "AM" which stands for Alastair Miller. It has a black mark on the upper top where my arm has worn the black into it, and has a scratch in the back near the middle. It has a tortoise shell style pick gard and an enlarged sound hole. There is also no fret markers on the fret board. It was in a black soft-shell Levis case which has a tear at the top of the case along the zipper. The guitar had a red strap on it and thats all I can think of for now.

I greatly appreciate all the help I can get on finding this one and only guitar.


Here is the link to the facebook group:

And an email you can send Marc, the owner: hoss_fly21@yahoo.com

Here is a link to a photo:

In fact, I am fairly certain that all of the photos in the dreadnought album are the same guitar:

Chances are pawnshops etc are his best bet but ya never know ;)

How did it get stolen off the subway? I would think you would have your hand tight on the handle. idunno
