Yeah, well don't scold me, but it happened after a session in Brighton. Unlike the Russian who left his leased $4M Strad in a cab and got it returned, mine has failed to resurface. This happened in Brighton on Monday night/Tues. morning. (Sept. 15) And yes, alcohol was involved, but no excuse.
It's not an expensive one, but it's easily identifiable. It has a repaired crack along the left F hole and a thin crack along the soundpost. So it's pretty much worthless to anyone but me. The label is handwritten "T. Rathbone 17/9/1937"
If discovered, please let me know, or send it over to the Brighton Station police. They have my report on it.
D'oh! On leaving a fiddle in a taxi cab...

Good thing you didn't leave your banjo in the cab, or the cab company would be overrun with banjos by now!
Seriously, good luck getting it returned!

I once left my ( secondhand, Greek ) bouzouki in a folk club.
Maybe that was my subconscious working ?
Hope you get the fiddle back.
