Overview
- Victoria Police are investigating a July 3 break-in at Camilleri’s Kyneton home but have not recovered any of the nine stolen guitars.
- The missing collection includes nine vintage instruments such as a 1954 Gibson Switchmaster and a 1975 Fender Stratocaster, valued at tens of thousands of dollars.
- The Black Sorrows used social media to ask fans and guitar dealers to share details and watch for the distinctive instruments.
- Camilleri warned the thieves may export the gear overseas, recalling a 2017 burglary in which his stolen equipment was later recovered.
- Despite the theft, Camilleri and The Black Sorrows remain on tour with their next performance set for August 29 at Wyong’s The Art House.
