Taking to social media, Bryan Adams shared a photo of the defaced guitar on Instagram.
“Airport customs graffiti on my 1946 Martin D-18 in Cairo, Egypt. Back to the luthier… #bryanadamsgetup,” he captioned it.
Bryan Adams is grateful to his Egyptian fans. Many reached out to him via social media after they heard the story of his defaced guitar.
TO ALL MY EGYPTIAN FRIENDS: Thank you for writing about the guitar, I really appreciate it, it will be fixed no problem….

It’s sad that there are untrustworthy customs agents. Travelers like Bryan Adams are at their mercy when traveling from country to country with valuables.
Have you ever experienced anything like Bryan Adams experienced when traveling to Egypt?
It no doubt left the rocker with a bad taste for travel.
