jimmyl51 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Does anybody on this forum know the whereabouts of the guy pictured below who used to own Center City Music San Diego as he stole my Gibson Byrdland and Gibson LeGrand? http://www.pokerpages.com/player-profile/saul-frank.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L5Larry Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Why don't you try looking for the GUITARS!!! Isn't that what you're REALLY after? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyl51 Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 Frank's clientelle ranged all over the USA as he was undercutting all of the Guitar Centers at the time. Gibson had issued a cease and desist order against him in violation of their policies. The guy has escaped to Mexico as he is half Mexican and half American and speaks fluent Spanish. He is evading US authorities also. My hope is that he may have moved these instruments to somebody that does read this forum possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie brown Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Well, I hope your guitars were insured! Because, they're GONE! I lost $25,000 dollars worth of camera gear, in L.A., and the cops told me to just forget about it, and file my insurance claim. Because no one was hurt, or killed, during the theft, they wouldn't even bother looking for my gear, as in their very words, "it's long gone, on the other side of the border!" In fact, they wouldn't even come out, to take fingerprints! Even though, by just the dollar amount alone, it was a "Grand Theft" felony! Cars, guitars, camera gear, anything of any value, that's stolen is quickly "fenced" or transfered across the border. So, if you aren't bleeding, or they aren't bleeding...you might as well kiss it all good bye, and replace them. Sorry... CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Gambling can be an "addiction" just like drugs, and as people get desperate, friends and family alike, get "burned!" Sad! Sorry, for the loss of your guitars, and your "at one time good friend," too. If you filed a police report, on the stolen guitars, the insurance company should have to pay the claim. Otherwise, why have any insurance, in the first place. But, Don't Get Me Started, on "Insurance companies!" CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
