Iron Maiden have launched an appeal after a one off guitar belonging to their guitarist Adrian Smith was stolen at a concert in Greece.
In an appeal on their website, the band called for fans to keep a lookout for the unique white 'Adrian Smith' signature model, which is made by Jackson guitars.
“It will be extremely hard to get rid of as it's the only one in the world,” they said.
It's understood that the guitar was stolen during the band's concert in Athens on Saturday night.
As a reward, anyone who finds the instrument will be given an exclusive Iron Maiden tour jacket and personal hand written letter of thanks from Smith.
As previously reported on Gigwise, Iggy Pop and The Stooges were also the victim of theft over the weekend.
The group had all their tour instruments, including a "classic" bass, and equipment stolen from their tour van outside their hotel.
