I was playing a sunburst Fender Stratocaster yesterday around 3pm near the Stanley Theater on Genesee Street in Utica when it slipped off my shoulder and vanished between parked cars. It's a 2002 Strat with a maple neck, a noticeable dent on the lower edge, and a small blue star sticker on the back of the headstock. The hard case is black tolex with a frayed zipper, and I’ve got a spare red pick tucked in the pocket. It means a lot to me—it's the first guitar my late mentor lent me—and I really need to find it.
