sling blade Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Hi everybody. My les paul fell out of the guitar stand and the head stock broke off. Im thinking of sending it back to gibson for repair. Has anyone else had gibson do this repair? How long will it take? How much will it cost? Any info would be appreciated.

Tim Plains Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Good choice. Greg's reputation is well deserved. When I broke my headstock, a local luthier told me to loosen the truss rod right up. Have you done that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigKahune Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 .... Before. Holy smokes. That's the one of the worst breaks I've ever seen. Considering the amount of splintering, she looks fantastic in the after pic. Primo job. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
