The missing items listed include a “custom-built, one-of-a-kind purple sparkle baritone Telecaster with a hand-painted headstock, crafted specifically for [guitarist] Nancy Wilson,” as well as a “vintage 1966 Gibson EM-50 mandolin” that band member Paul Moak has played for over 25 years.

In a statement Nancy Wilson said, “These instruments are more than just tools of our trade — they’re extensions of our musical souls. The baritone Tele was made uniquely for me, and Paul’s mandolin has been with him for decades. We’re heartbroken, and we’re asking for their safe return—no questions asked. Their value to us is immeasurable.”

An unspecified reward is being offered for any information leading to the return of the instruments, with anyone with knowledge of the thefts or the location of the gear encouraged to contact the band’s tour manager Tony Moon.

The next scheduled date on Heart’s tour is on Wednesday night (June 4) at the Fox Theatre in Detroit.
