During the "Real Deal" tour Wishbone Ash were this week in Berlin, where unfortunately their van was broken into and a HUGE ammount of classic (irreplacable?) guitars were stolen.

Here is a list of the gear, with serial numbers.

It's heart breaking.

Really unfortunate for the band and I hope they are able to recover these undoubtedly prized possessions, but honestly - I'm a little surprised to hear Wishbone Ash are still around and touring.  Are there any original members left in that band?

This has been happening since the dawn of rock bands. The gear will never be recovered. ClemofNazareth which rock have you been hibernating under?

I hope the people who stole this gear know how to appreciate it! Too bad for Wishbone Ash of course...
