Tony MacAlpine - Equipment Stolen On Tour
Tony MacAlpine (guitarist of Planet X, Ring Of Fire and solo project Tony MacAlpine) has recently issued a statement regarding an incident in which his equipment was stolen from Tony MacAlpine's tour trailer in Austin, Texas. If you've heard or seen anything about the gear stolen, help out. Meanwhile, fans, fellow musicians, and endorsement companies have loaned them some gear to cover what was stolen so that they can continue the tour. This however does not cover the considerable cost to replace the equipment long-term, or the high costs of shipping replacement equipment on the road and so they have set up a GoFundMe campaign here.
Tony's guitars that were stolen:
- his black Ibanez Guitars custom 7-string withEMG Pickups installed (serial LA071509);
- his white Ibanez 7-string with black EMG 707 pickups (serial LA0168);
The above guitars are Tony's only two Ibanez 7's and he has been photographed with them extensively. Also stolen were a Peavy EVH sunburst, a white Carvin 7-string; plus Tony's pedalboard.

Seriously, those responsible must have had a massive Uhaul truck or something. That's a fuckload of equipment.

These cases seem to become more frequent... it's like robbers understand that musical equipment is good loot... I wonder whether they have established distribution channels since this is a pretty specific type of goods.
