A suspected guitar thief in Lake Forest, California, had a short-lived getaway after deputies recovered a haul of high-end instruments reportedly taken during a Friday night burglary at the local branch of Guitar Center. Authorities described the stolen gear as being worth nearly $50,000.

According to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department’s Lake Forest post, Deputy Carrillo and K9 Billy located the suspect vehicle and recovered the instruments before the case had time to go cold. Reports say the guitars were found in the trunk of a Kia Forte parked at a gas station, with the suspect detained at the scene.

The recovered instruments appear to have included some serious collector-grade pieces: a Fender Custom Shop ’52 Telecaster, a PRS Private Stock McCarty 594, a Gibson Les Paul Custom, a Gibson Eric Clapton “Crossroads” ES-335, and a vintage Gibson L-7C archtop. The Clapton model alone can command serious money thanks to its limited-run status, while the PRS and Les Paul Custom would each sit firmly in premium territory.

Officials have not publicly named the suspect, and some details around the original burglary remain unclear. However, deputies tracked down the suspect vehicle, and the instruments were luckily recovered before they could vanish into the resale market.
