Red burst Yamaha 5-piece drum kit
Description
I lost my red burst Yamaha 5-piece drum kit yesterday around 3pm near the Mission Inn on Mission Inn Ave in Riverside, Inland Empire. It's a Yamaha Stage Custom kit with a glossy red burst finish, a 22x18 bass drum, 16x16 floor tom, and 12x9 and 10x8 rack toms, plus a 14x5.5 snare. The bass drum has a Space Cadet sticker on the front and the snare has a blue star sticker, plus a small dent on the hoop of the kick. The kit was a gift from my late grandfather and means a lot to me; I really need it back for gigs this weekend. If you found it, reach me at [email protected] so we can arrange a pickup near Riverside Plaza or at the Mission Inn area.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
