I would like to know how much insurance Scott had on these guitars. Unless they were some old school Les Pauls, Strat or some sort of PRS Dragon I dont' know where he arrived at their values.

Re: $150,000 worth of "Creed" guitars stolen
Silly to leave these guitars in the trunk of the car - even if it was at your home and presumably not lock the car. Should have taken the guitars out or had some sort of security around.
I don't condone what happened and hope they get the guys ... you do not fool around or steal other peoples axes.

Re: $150,000 worth of "Creed" guitars stolen
It's too bad that the guitars were stolen, but Scott Stapp is a notorious a**hole.
In one word I'd call it Karma.Originally posted by crusty philtrumAnd that's probably because most people with electric guitars seem more interested in their own performance rather than the effect on the listener ... in fact i don't think many people who own electric guitars even give a poop about the effect on a listener. Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

Re: $150,000 worth of "Creed" guitars stolen
I'm still trying to figure out how those guitars amounted to $150,000. Unless the frets were 24 karat gold, even custom built guitars by some of the finest builders in the world don't cost that much...insurance fraud anyone?

In one word I'd call it Karma.Teenagers can't sing the Blues. They ain't fixin' to die yet. Adults sing the Blues. In Blues, "adulthood" means being old enough to get the electric chair if you shoot a man in Memphis.

Re: $150,000 worth of "Creed" guitars stolen
I hate thieves too...
but...
... will it stop Creed from making commercial-bonbon-candy-tuff-looking-but-wimpy-gay music ?
I hate such bands... in fact, I hate all the bands who try to emulate each others voice/style/sound... you know... it all started with in the early 90's with Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains and Stone Temple Pilots, which were all great, then, it seems like every commercial rock singer now HAS to emulate the same voices.... that sux ... everytime I turn on the radio, I really think they play the same song all day long... or was it the Repeat function on my CD player :O no.. I dont have such musicEdwards Jimmy Page, Fender AmDlx Strat, PRS CE24, Edwards E-FV, AGILE Valkyrie Double-neck, Ibanez EP9. Metroamp 50w, Fender SFSR, Blackstar HT40 VP

Re: $150,000 worth of "Creed" guitars stolen
Originally posted by FattyAverage worth of $37,500 apiece.
Four guitars worth more than $150,000 were stolen from the Miami Beach home of one of the members of the rock band Creed, police say.
Miami Beach police are asking for the public's help in the search for the missing instruments, which were reportedly taken May 11 from the trunk of a car that was parked in the driveway of the Miami Beach home.
Police say two of the instruments were custom made and have a combined retail value of $150,000. Police have released a description of the two guitars. One is black with the word "prototype" and the numeral "4" written across the back part of the neck. The other guitar is gold with the words "custom built for Scott Stapp" written on the neck.

Re: $150,000 worth of "Creed" guitars stolen
This is an example not as high as a 50's or early 60's Les Paul. But can give you an Idea on how high they can go in price.

Originally posted by pureoldsoundI've seen Old Les Pauls for $75K+ on ebay. Maybe they were collectors items. Very sad thing.....Although If I knew I had $150K worth of valuables in my car I wouldn't leave it on the trunk even if it is parked inside my garage.......There is no respect at all for others peoples property
