Popular rock band's stolen custom guitar has been found, mandolin still missing
Police in New Jersey have recovered one of 'two irreplaceable instruments' that were stolen from rock band Heart. A custom purple sparkle baritone Telecaster guitar, made for guitarist Nancy Wilson, was returned after a woman bought it from the theft suspect, the Associated Press reported. Surveillance video caught the suspect giving the guitar to a woman who put it in her car before parking a few blocks away from the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City, where it had been stolen on the eve of their May 31. Police identified the vehicle by using automated license plate readers, the AP reported. Officers then tracked its location and contacted the owner, who voluntarily surrendered the instrument. The person she allegedly bought the guitar from has been charged with burglary and theft, the AP reported. Heart's other stolen instrument, a vintage 1966 Gibson EM-50 mandolin played by Paul Moak for more than 25 years, is still missing. 'These instruments are more than just tools of our trade — they're extensions of our musical souls,' Wilson previously said in a statement shared to Instagram. 'The baritone Tele was made uniquely for me, and Paul's mandolin has been with him for decades,' she said. 'We're heartbroken, and we're asking for their safe return — no questions asked. Their value to us is immeasurable.' Heart is offering a reward for information leading to the return of the instrument. Anyone with information is urged to come forward and contact the band's tour manager, Tony Moon, at tonymoon@ Known for hits such as 'Crazy on You,' 'Magic Man,' 'Barracuda,' 'What About Love?,' and 'Alone,' Heart has sold more than 35 million records worldwide and was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2013. Heart resumed the band's 'Royal Flush Tour' in February after postponing it last year as Nancy's sister, lead singer Ann Wilson, had to be treated for cancer. The band has shows scheduled through the end of August.

Nancy Wilsons stolen custom-built Telecaster guitar was recovered by police in New Jersey
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) — Police in Atlantic City said Tuesday that they retrieved one of the two irreplaceable instruments owned by members of the rock band Heart that were stolen from a venue in the New Jersey city two weeks ago as the group prepared to launch a nationwide tour. Police said they retrieved the Telecaster guitar from a woman who bought it from the theft suspect. A vintage 1966 Gibson EM-50 mandolin remains unaccounted for. The purple sparkle baritone Telecaster guitar with a hand-painted headstock was custom-made for band member Nancy Wilson. Detectives say surveillance video showed the suspect giving the Telecaster to a woman, who put the guitar in her vehicle parked a couple blocks from the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, where it had been stolen. Police then used automated license plate readers to identify the vehicle, track its location and contact the owner, who voluntarily surrendered the guitar, police said.
