Police recover 15 stolen basses belonging to Ra Diaz of Korn in Las Vegas area

Author Benedetta Baldin - 30.4.2026

Korn member Ra Diaz’s fifteen stolen bass guitars were just found by Henderson Police in Henderson, Nevada, as per theprp. The instruments were taken during a storage room break-in that occurred in the Las Vegas region around two weeks ago, according to FOX5. The instruments were eventually found thanks to a tip from a fan who saw markings on them from Diaz’s time as a member of Suicidal Tendencies. While playing one of the pilfered instruments in a nearby music store, the fan became aware of the markings. Jameson Harding, a property crimes detective for Henderson Police, continued to describe the investigation.

It definitely helped us early on to be able to get a couple of leads on recovering some of his property, probably a little bit quicker than we may have found them. Because it’s people that he knows and some of his friends who know his stuff very well. So, I think it was pretty helpful with timing.

Jameson Harding stated:

One that we recovered had a Chilean flag on it. And Mr. Diaz is from Chile. And so, they’re getting ready to tour there. He was just super thankful that we found that guitar because he said his plan the whole time was to come back to Vegas for ‘Sick New World‘, get that guitar and take it on tour with him. So, it was really cool to be able to give him that. It’s obviously part of his heritage. He wants to have that with him on this next leg of their tour. They hung out for a couple of minutes with us in the office, just going over his stuff. He just seems like such a super guy. Extremely nice, very friendly with our staff here. And he’s been super thankful.

No one has been taken into custody in relation to the incident thus far. Last Saturday, April 25, Korn, System of A Down, and numerous more artists performed at the 2026 “Sick New World” event in Las Vegas, Nevada.
