Had backup steel stolen last night, looking for a new one...

Post by Joseph Borja »

So I had posted an ad earlier to sell my DeArcos steel and had it stolen last night at a club. It was my backup/practice steel, so it wasn't a huge loss. My main guitar is still on our tour bus and never leaves. SO...I' looking for a new steel for home use if anybody has an S-10 around I would be interested. All brands and offers...Thanks!

Man, that's a bummer. At least it should be easy to spot if it shows up in Austin right? I mean, that's the only DeArcos steel I've heard about, did they build a bunch?

I can't speak for anyone else, but i gig alot, and i'll keep an eye out. I always keep an eye out anyway, especially at steel rigs, it's total eye candy for me.

Thanks Phil! yeah it should be easy to spot. I believe this was one of a kind steel too. Real simple setup, but it was a perfect lightweight, travel guitar.

Man, I'm really sorry, Joseph. Hard to find any love for thieves.
Absolute best wishes from here on out.
