Probably not, but I can take an educated guess.

[TheLiveSoundGuy 2]

I said he should give 'em to me.

 

The odds of that happening are better than the odds of Pete's Gibson staying in one piece at the end of the night.

Now pay attention y'all.

This is what happens when you smash a nice guitar.

Nice Guitar, but doesn't play so well these days..... OK, kindling wood.

And someplace there is a music elf with no home.

'taint me, I generally advocate putting some back together that SHOULDN'T be!

[guitarstrummer 503]

You're also not the one I was thinking about, ksdaddy.

though it could be a 'make work' project of the depression-era's 'dig a hole/fill a hole variety.

KSD, you should buy that wreck off ebay (ec-10, from that other thread) and play humpty dumpty. we'd all love to see the time-line and results.

When I saw Townsend smash his guitar after 4 hours of playing I understood why he did it. It was all he could do because the energy built up was so all-consuming.

Grew up, watching Pete Townsend and The Who, smash guitars, amps, and anything else, on stage!

Not ever being in a financial position, to be that cavalier, about my guitars/amps, etc. I never understood

(and, frankly, still don't) the "need" for that non-sense. Never mind the "message" it sent out...even

back then. Of course, nowadays...too much stuff is "throw-away" anyway...so, maybe it doesn't matter?

 

I just know, I would never do that, then or now. ;>b

Smashing guitars is the height of excess. Don't they know that there are little children in China starving for a Gibson????!!!!!

Guitars have to much sentimental value for me to smash them. Even if it was a guitar thet did not belong to me or one I had just gotten out of a box all I would see was the thousands of hours of enjoyment it could bring some one else. Then again, it is easy for me to value them so highly being a bum.

I think it's stupid to waste anything.

 

Give it to a poor kid. Then give him a few lessons.
