Thurston white jazzmaster was on ebay two weeks ago.
I called Lee and they were trying to recovered it. I don't have fresh news and I don't know if the guitar is back or not.

Man, this story is just amazing. Kept reading because that BM finish is so great looking!
I saw them a year or so after that gear heist and always thought it was such a shame. Really great osg has been responsible for a few recoveries!
