Ben’s Guitar

Hello Everyone,

We have some very sad news from Ben + Vesper. Sept. 12th, Ben’s butter-yellow G&L guitar was stolen from a church storage-room in Orange, NJ. This was an incredible instrument with a great deal of sentimental value.

Here is some information about the instrument:
-Butter-yellow G&L ASAT
-Tele-style body
-Two G&L lipstick pickups
-All parts of the guitar are original
-Fairly heavy
-Stolen with its case-SKB black hardshell
-Unfortunately, we have no serial number for the instrument.

Any and all information about the whereabouts of this instrument would be extremely appreciated. Please keep your eyes peeled. Thanks everyone.

With love and hope,

Everyone at Sounds Familyre
