I know that terrible feeling all too well. I have three electrics and a acoustic. They all have had at least one accident.
The worst is when my Gibson LP slipped off a couch and the headstock cracked. As some of you probably know, LPs are notorious for this. It wasn't cracked all the way through fortunately. I was able to do a repair and it has been solid for years.
Oh man almost the exact same thing happened to a buddy of mine! His cream colored LP Custom took a similar fall and cracked the headstock on the back very similar to the pic you posted in your 2nd post but the crack was all the way across. He was able to glue it back fortunately as well and it still plays like a dream.
My first guitar was a Suzuki LP copy and the case for it was kind of ragged, I was running across the street one day to catch a bus and it came out of its case , hit the pavement and slid about 10 feet across the road, the neck was almost completely dislodged from the body , I am not even sure what was holding it from coming off but I was able to get it home and get some good ol epoxy in there and clamp it together again. I was really suprised that I was able to salvage it but it came out still playing pretty good with some nice road rash on the back for character
. Since it was a Suzuki maybe I should have been riding it rather than carrying it
Feeling any better yet Narzsa?
