Sunburst Yamaha FG800 acoustic guitar
I lost my sunburst Yamaha FG800 acoustic guitar yesterday around 3pm near the Milwaukee Public Market on Broadway in the Third Ward. It's a dreadnought with a glossy sunburst finish, rosewood fingerboard, and a small chip on the lower bout by the edge. The guitar is in good condition otherwise, with light fret wear and a worn leather strap attached to the strap button. Inside the soundhole there's a sticker from the Milwaukee Dwellers Club. This guitar is sentimental to me—my dad handed it down, and I really need it back.
Red violin with bow, case missing near Milwaukee Public Market
I lost my red violin with bow and case yesterday around 3pm near the Milwaukee Public Market on Water Street. It's a full-size 4/4 violin with a warm red-orange varnish, spruce top, and a maple back with a subtle flame. There's a tiny chip on the lower bout and a scratch along the scroll; inside the f-hole is a small label with my initials 'PK.' The case is black with a soft brown velvet lining and a scuffed leather handle. This violin means a lot to me—it's been a gift from my former mentor, and I really need it back.
Found Yamaha FG800 acoustic guitar
I found a Yamaha FG800 acoustic guitar this afternoon around 3:15pm, tucked in a black soft gig bag behind the Milwaukee Public Market on Water Street, near the riverfront. The guitar is a natural finish dreadnought, with a few light scratches on the lower bout and a small dent on the headstock, but otherwise in good condition. There’s a bright blue strap peeking out from the case and a sticker of a Milwaukee Brewers logo on the inside of the lid, which helped me spot it again. I know someone must be missing this, and I’d love to get it back to its owner. If this sounds like yours, reply here and we’ll coordinate a meetup near the market or Cathedral Square.
