Topic: Spider John Koerner's guitar stolen Return to archive

Somebody stole Spider John Koerner's guitar on June 26, a crime akin to jacking B.B. King's Lucille and selling it on eBay. The prized instrument is a 1947 Acoustic Gretsch 6-string modified into a 12-string, and has long been part of the Minneapolis blues legend's distinct sound. You can't miss it if you find it: The Gretsch inlay on top of the neck is misspelled, with an 'r' where the 'c' should be (GRETSCH spelled as "GRETSRH"). Call the police in Minneapolis, MN, if you hear anything. Go to Spider John's web site for a photo of the "Gretsrh": http://www.mwt.net/~koerner/
