Mayberry Music Seeks Help Finding Stolen Guitars

Mayberry Music - Facebook

A local music shop says two guitars were stolen yesterday - and they're looking for help recovering them.

Mayberry Music in Jonesboro posted pictures of the stolen instruments on their Facebook page - two Gibson Les Paul Customs Shop guitars were taken, a value of more than $10,000.

Owners of the store say it was a group of four people - some of them distracted store staff while the others walked out with the guitars.

The four people were wearing masks, and police have been notified.

Mayberry Music also provided serial numbers for the guitars:

  • Gibson 1957 Les Paul Gold Top Reissue VOS Ser. # 791449
  • Gibson 1958 Les Paul Standard Bourbon Burst Reissue VOS Ser. # 89995
