Brown violin in red-lined case
I lost my brown Stentor Student II violin yesterday around 3pm near Park Street in Bristol. It's a 4/4 violin with a warm honey-brown varnish and a small dent on the scroll. The case is a black rectangular hard case with a bright red velvet lining, and the bow has a faint blue tassel on the grip. There's a tiny green sticker on the inside lid that says 'Bristol Strings Shop'; that sticker is one-of-a-kind. This instrument means a lot to me; it was a gift from my teacher, and I really need it back to keep practicing. If anyone found it around the Tesco Express area on Park Street or near the University of Bristol, please get in touch.
Gold Yamaha trumpet with initials A.H.
I was at a Bristol Jazz Collective rehearsal yesterday around 3pm and realized my gold Yamaha trumpet went missing. It's gold lacquer, three valves, with a slightly curved bell, and it's in decent shape aside from two tiny dents near the bell and a small scratch along the third valve slide. The mouthpiece has initials A.H. engraved on the rim, and I always kept a bright orange cleaning cloth tucked in the soft black case. It's a gift from my late mentor and means a lot to me, so I really need it back. Last seen outside The Arnolfini on the Harbourside near M Shed, around 3pm yesterday.
Sunburst acoustic guitar with blue strap found near Corn Street
I found a sunburst acoustic guitar this afternoon around 2:15pm, leaning against a brick planter outside St Nicholas Market on Corn Street in Bristol. It's a Yamaha FG-series style acoustic, with a small dent on the lower bout and a frayed blue strap still attached. The finish is a warm sunburst that fades to black at the edges, and there are a couple stickers on the headstock—one says 'Bristol Buskers' and the other is a tiny globe. It's a string instrument, and the guitar rings nicely when strummed, which makes me think someone might be really missing it. If it's yours, tell me a detail like the sticker on the headstock or the strap pattern to verify.
Blue Mapex snare drum with sticker
Yesterday around 3pm I realized my blue Mapex snare drum was missing after a quick practice session outside a coffee shop on Stokes Croft in Bristol. It’s a 14x5.5 inch snare, shell is cobalt blue with a small dent on the rim and a white head showing some wear. There’s a faded yellow sticker from a Bristol indie band called 'The Whistles' on the shell, plus chrome hardware that's a touch tarnished. A tiny crack near the edge of the batter head is barely noticeable. This drum means a lot to me; it’s how I play my busking set and it was a gift from my late uncle. If someone found it, please get in touch—I really need it back.
Black Yamaha violin in red hard case
I lost my Yamaha full-size violin yesterday around 3pm, likely somewhere along Park Street in Bristol, between Waterstones and the Students' Union building. The violin is in a red hard case with a little scuff on the corner; the varnish is slightly worn, and the chin rest has a tiny dent. Inside the lid, there's a white sticker with my initials 'PP' and a faded rosined bow. This violin means a lot to me—it was a gift from my grandmother, and I really need to get it back.
Silver Hohner harmonica with red heart sticker
I lost my silver Hohner harmonica this afternoon around 4:15pm outside the Bristol Old Vic on King Street. It's a compact 10-hole harmonica, shiny silver, with a tiny dent on the bottom edge and a red heart sticker on the plastic case. It meant a lot to me—it was a gift from my granddad and has sentimental value, so I really need it back. If you saw it or picked it up, I’d be grateful if you can get in touch via [email protected] and we can arrange pickup; I’ll gladly thank you with a small reward.
