Wanted Man! Shoplifting at SV Guitars.

Maybe Standardvalue could also take this as a lesson? (no offense) To be honest, I feel that the more expensive guitars should not be placed so close to the entrance. Somebody could just run and grab the guitar... and the entrance of the basement is just beside the shop...

in my honest opinion.

Wasn't the guy closer to the middle of the guitar display wall?
 
^^ The guitar that he took was close to the entrance, as seen in the pics.

^ Uh have you not seen the other pics? If that's not conclusive evidence, I don't know what is.
 
Wow, so brazen.

It looks like a planned operation. As in there must be at least another accomplice standing nearby with an empty gig bag in his hands, while another keep a lookout at the entrance of the shop.

Cos thieves aren't that stupid to be walking around City Hall with an electric guitar without a case. That would be suicidal in case they were caught in action and made a dash for it, and subsequently chased by the store staff.

I suppose the police have their mug shots by now from the store, and hopefully from the building's CCTV too, and I hope they get caught soon.

Singapore is small and one stupid move like trying to sell it to Cash Converters will be the end of these desperadoes.

I hope the mods can make this thread a sticky, and Softies can help spread this in other forums and keep a lookout for these fat losers.

:twisted::twisted::twisted:
 
Will keep a lookout here. Yeah, agreed it looks like a planned operation... But definitely he won't be returning to city hall anytime soon eh? Maybe we should put 'wanted' posters up...
 
Maybe SV guitars should keep the more expensive guitars at a store at the back of the shop? Heard the stolen one is around 1.1k, so prob not anyone who walks into the shop will get that. Only those who are looking for a specific one, will enquire for it, no?

Not only SV guitars, all guitar shops should, unless it's one that sells all expensive guitars, but that's another matter. Guitars would probably be chained up or something

This is not the first story of guitar theft in peninsular I heard. Seems to be quite common in peninsular leh. Although, this is the first time a guitar was stolen direct from a shop. Must not let my guitar out of sight the next time if I bring it there......
 
People are losing their minds these days.In reality,the guitar wont be seen till maybe a year or so cause police wont really bother to rush a case.

By the time the guitar is found (if) it wont be in the same condition.
 
thats just a swing. a Fender AV precision bass got stolen from GC. who knows, the guy might just be among us.
 
i can't wait for his Arrest and face shown on the news paper, and we can all laugh at this person.

If he sees this thread and HIS FACE in the pictures, i hope he wets himself and realizes that a shitStorm of consequences is comin for him...
 
hmm.. mike.. maybe u track back the video.. i think he aim very long alr... he got the motive... try to review back the video more... anyway u can also check with the other guitar shop owner and view the cctv too... if he bought a case with nets... the police will take action... =D
 
Yep this guy sure knows his guitars well, he was looking for an easy target and bang, there you go the prism, located so near the entrance. I'm sure there was someone outside with a gig bag waiting for him. It would surely attract unwanted attention if he were to lug it back home without one.
 
TYMC had something similar happen to them quite awhile back too...

oh what has happened to integrity?
 
He's dead either ways....
His boss actually asked him to get the PRS Al D Prism from Davis and he got the Swing Prism instead :mrgreen:

lol i don't think i see a PRS al di meola prism in Davis ??? but lols yea he's dead cos he couldn't find it he got a swing prism.
 
Man. This guy's damn desprate.

I suggest shops should have a closed door with a bell or a smaller entrance to deter people from stealing easily.
