I lost my guitar:cry:I had left it at a friends house for a week, so I went out last saturday with them and then took it back. It was 5am I had to bike about 20 kilometers, it was -6 degrees and has wind against me. At a certain point I sat down at a bench because I was starting to get a headache from all the cold wind blowing in my face. I must have left it there then. Today when I noticed it I biked back there but it was gone :( I feel to so stupid. Please pray that whoever found it was an honest person and turns it into the police.

superduperblake, that was very uncalled for.

Remember that the next time you do something stupid. :\

Agreed

Nothing worse than losing something so important to you and knowing full fledged it was by your own doing.

Just remember that there was a reason for you leaving that guitar there that day! Maybe the LORD intended for someone else to have it to learn to play or to bring happiness to someone elses life.

Be blessed that the LORD has chosen your guitar to do these things.

Idicious, hang in there, bro.

About 6 years ago, my husband and his best friend were coming out of the studio, having just finished mixing an awesome CD they recorded...naturally, they were excited about it, and as they got into the car, chattering away, little did my husband realize he left his Paul Reed Smith guitar on the curb (in San Francisco). By the time he figured it out, several blocks later, they drove back, and it was gone. He said he felt like he got punched in the stomach, and he got literally sick over it. I mean, yeah, sure, he has other guitars, but that one was his favorite. And expensive, too.

Anyway, my husband is an AWESOME guitarist, who plays in a well-known Latin Rock band, but also, as of the last 7 years, he has devoted himself to composing and playing music for the Lord.
So, here's the thing:
About 4 years ago, he arrived at a friend's house, where some of the fellas were meeting up to ride together to the studio to record some Christian songs. One of the guys said to my husband, "Hey, check out this guitar" and pointed to a case on the sofa. My husband opened the case, and in it was a gorgeous Paul Reed Smith McCarty guitar. On top of the guitar was a letter to him, get this, from the Lord! It said that his music was as a sweet aroma to heaven, and as a result this guitar was a gift to him to replace the one that was lost!!! I mean, the letter is just amazing! My husband burst into tears...and noone will 'fess up about where the guitar came from, or who paid for it. Nobody. It's from the Lord!
To this day, he plays that guitar more than all his others (even though he has an endorsement from Gibson! oops! LOL!)....and not long ago, while he was playing it at a Christian concert, a pastor came up to him in tears, and told him that he heard the voice of God speaking to him through those guitar strings!! (Wow! Heavy!)
There are just stories upon stories about this guitar since the day it mysteriously appeared!

Point being: If you use your musical talents which God Himself has given you to minister His Word, and to minister to Him with praise, either your guitar, or even a better one, will come back to you eventually.
Have faith - pray - and you will have what your heart desires!

God bless you.....keep us posted!

God more than likely has something better for you anyway. You live and you learn... I lost my cell phone once..probably not the same as losing a guitar, but still..any way I ended up getting one way better that a friend just gave to me. Dont be too hard on yourself we all make mistakes.

Well, here's an update, guitar sadly never made it back to me, but I got myself a nice Dean Vendetta 4.0 now (good deal better than one I lost) and a Marshall Cabinet :D And I know I'm never ever taking my guitar off my back again while biking home with it ;)

Wow, that sucks really bad. I pray that you find it, man. What kind of guitar did it happen to be?
