Repairing a Broken Guitar Headstock - Part One

http://www.creativeguitarstudio.com/ Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio presents a guitar lesson in Fingerstyle Guitar... Q: I don't know if you can help me, I've had a guitar break on me! What happened is, my band was playing at the bar and after 2nd set this drunk woman walked up on-stage and while staggering around she tripped on my patch-cord and sent my guitar smashing onto the stage off of it's guitar stand and this caused my head-stock to snap. A guy that was in the club (who said he was a carpenter) told me to not try doing anything until someone who knows what they're doing could look at it. So, on his advice, I have not touched the guitar since, even the strings are still on it! I loved that guitar, is there any way to fix something like this -- I realize that it may never be the same again, but I'd still like to have it around the apartment as a guitar to just jam on without having to spend hundreds of dollars to repair it. Got any suggestions for me? Pedro, Philadelphia Well Pedro, I can certainly sympathize with you, I've had this sort of thing happen to me as well... it's not a great experience to say the least. But, luckily there is hope for you. The complete lesson article for this video will be available on the Creative Guitar Studio website shortly.
