Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: darkmonth on September 08, 2006, 06:25:24 PM I knocked it by accident... dragging a duvet ...
My own fault. Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: Kov on September 08, 2006, 07:03:45 PM (http://www.vintage52.hu/images/gallery/f8e10a0abd2c22c230b11e50b7a6672f.jpg)
Don't worry! It's repairable. Here is an example: (http://www.vintage52.hu/images/gallery/864d2ec6b1b9b1184c84f9ad98e02e46.jpg) (http://www.vintage52.hu/images/gallery/e5e16c8bf80328d5415146be266c6aad.jpg) (http://www.vintage52.hu/images/gallery/a5cc23af5581d413dcdac3ec6d3d89d1.jpg) (http://www.vintage52.hu/images/gallery/76181146626713e48a4eafe02f838181.jpg) (http://www.vintage52.hu/images/gallery/3b0758cab5a3a5336866685c8f81eedf.jpg) (http://www.vintage52.hu/images/gallery/dfe7ca6d76179ba37e1ebb9665e7456d.jpg) (http://www.vintage52.hu/images/gallery/b025d4ecdcc0175bf984e7f29d80e9fd.jpg) (http://www.vintage52.hu/images/gallery/c901d411bd4abab393259d8db5ed7555.jpg) : ok: Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: Darkburst on September 08, 2006, 07:43:42 PM You'll be able to fix her up good as new. That angled headstock is a Les Pauls Achilles Heel!
Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: Poof! on September 08, 2006, 07:45:27 PM Shit, that sucks. I'm sure you can get it fixed, though.
Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: darkmonth on September 08, 2006, 08:01:42 PM Yeah ... I know it can be fixed ... but it's gonna cost me !!!! :( A lot.
Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: Poof! on September 08, 2006, 08:06:27 PM I feel for you, that's the only thing about playing expensive instruments....
Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: darkmonth on September 08, 2006, 08:10:56 PM I FEEL FOR ME!
LOL! I mean... LUCKILY, I have a Fender Telecaster as a backup! But it's no Gibson!!! :rant: Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: Genesis on September 08, 2006, 09:55:17 PM Shit, the pain is almost physical. Twisted, u ought to be more careful with ur guitars. Gibson that too... :no:
Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: AdZ on September 09, 2006, 10:39:13 AM Happened to mine, pretty standard.
Didn't cost too much to fix, just make sure you take it somewhere good because the glue has to be mixed properly and if not, it just all goes to crap. Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: darkmonth on September 09, 2006, 10:56:56 AM I'm getting it t Gibson ... they don't just glue it ,... they do all kinds of cool shit to make it look and feel like new! :)
Go to the site to see... Its' cool :D Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: quadlaser on September 10, 2006, 09:37:19 PM that actually happenned to me too! it was my les paul studio. the break looked exactly the same. gibson fixed it for free (i just didn't tell them it was knocked over : ok:). but then it happenned again while it was on a plane (in a hard case)! took it to a local guitar tech that time and he fixed it perfectly, for cheap too.
Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: Verse Chorus Verse on September 10, 2006, 09:47:44 PM Damn, that sucks, man. It's a real nice guitar, too. Hope you get it fixed soon. : ok:
Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: WILLIAM BAILEY on September 13, 2006, 08:13:07 AM Same happend to me years ago... twice!!! .... but perfectly fixed now :-)
Title: Re: My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :( Post by: Progress on September 13, 2006, 01:27:44 PM I have a gibson sg copy that broke at the same place...got it fixed by my father, and it was good as new.Same thing happened again some time ago,and I'm having it fixed again.No worries!You won't know the difference!!
