So I own 4 guitars (or did). I recently bought a sweet ass 60th anniversary mexican made stratocaster (a birthday gift to myself), a les paul knock off, my first guitar (a cheap strat copy) and a Canadian made Norman acoustic guitar that I got several years from an insurance settlement following a flood in our basement.
Now for the last few months I have been restricted to keep all but on in their cases as I only had one complete guitar stand (lost pieces to my other one in the last move). So for Christmas my folks gave my a triple guitar stand so I could keep my electrics together and have the acoustic on the other one.
I set it up last night and it looked like it would work pretty well. However I woke up somewhat messed up this (rough night, didn't sleep too well) and decided to check email on my desktop next to where I had my acoustic guitar. I prop my feet up on the desk and when I went to get up from the chair, in one fluid motion, my feet hit the guitar and knocked it hard to the floor. It scarded the crap out of me and in my groggy state, I simply grabbed the guitar, propped it back in the stand and went about my business; almost willing it to be okay.
But that was not to be. When I finally got around to examining it tonight, I found it the headstock was pretty well smashed...
Well I guess now I have no choice: time to buy a Martin...
