Your stolen guitar may already be listed for sale.
Stolen guitars resurface on eBay, Reverb, Facebook Marketplace, and local classifieds — sometimes within days, sometimes decades later (a 1954 Strat stolen in the '80s was spotted on Reverb in 2021). PharosEyes checks them automatically, every day, and emails you the moment a likely match appears.

The serial number (headstock or neck plate) is the gold standard — it survives any description the seller writes. Custom inlays, wear patterns, modified pickups, and case stickers all sharpen the match.

gavel What happens on a match
You get an email with the listing and exactly why we flagged it. Confirmed sightings build a police-ready evidence report. We never contact the seller — recovery goes safely through law enforcement. Not every stolen guitar is relisted online — but when it is, early detection can make all the difference.
