Please pass this on and make the instrument too hot to handle. I hope the thieving bastard gets jugged quickly!

A make and serial number would be useful Alan

The information with the post on Dougie's facebook timeline is as below:

My precious 1930's Martin tenor (4 stringed) guitar was stolen from my home in Butterstone on Friday Night. If you see it anywhere or have any details that may be helpful contact me on here or email Jenny on admin@butterstone.com. These guitars are rare in Scotland so it should be easily identified. Cheers!!

However, the original post is from 3rd February, with a few posts since then. Shares took off on 5th December for some reason- with no word from Dougie as to whether it is still missing or not.

If it is still missing, it could be anywhere- so perhaps not the "live issue" it appears.

Will try to find out more.

This has also been revived on Facebook. Trish Santer has posted:This actually happened last January, but if it's never been recovered, no harm in re-posting the info.

Hugs,

also remember to check sites like ebay, craigslist, freecycle, too. You never know!

He did have other instruments last time I saw him play (which was a very long time ago).

If he hasn't got it back yet, maybe there's a didgeridoo album in the works.

Actually, there is a new "album in the works". It probably won't have didgeridoo on it.
As far as I know, Dougie never did get the tenor guitar back, so it remains as "stolen property".
