Sorry to hear that. Guitar thieves are lowlife scum, deserving of elaborate tortures.
 Make a wishlist of components and pop it on here. 
Best Whooshes,

Last Thursday somebody stole my pedal board and a guitar.         The board had an old Sola Tonebender a Trem Face, Wah Face and        Colursound OD and Memoryman rehoused to used knobs. All of the        stuff is really old and I can get away with replacing most of it        with modern copies. There are a couple of things that I can't do        without and I am stupidly particular about them.
      
          

            
          
I need buy, beg, borrow              ,steal some old electronic parts to reconstruct a NoName              (I assume Sola) Tonebender and and a Colursound sustainer.              If anybody knows how I can get some old Germanium              transistors, real ones used or new. I would be really              grateful.  20 years ago they were common parts in the UK.              In school I built amps for my friends so I am pretty sure              I can build the two pieces that might cost me thousands to              replace.
          

            
          
Any advice from you tone              gods, I am all ears.
          

            
          
Thanks for being the great              group of folks you are..  I have been meaning to say theat              for a while
