Who wants this guy as a client?



What's amazing to me is the old expression that you are dumb when you make a mistake and you are stupid when you make the same mistake twice..... What's this guy? :? :D

I don't know, use the worst wood, don't thin it, use 3/8" braces and let him have at it. wouldn't have to worry about bridge location, intonation or anything.

This guy is a real moron. Gotta wonder how long he's gonna be around. Wonder if he's got a drivers license? wow7-eyes

Now that's some serious head banger music, if he has a real guitar he would have done it with one bash and probably have a back brace stuck in his forehead or eye socket.

I like the Wal-Martin thing I will remember that when describing a bad guitar.

...can't wait to pay his health care bill in the near future.
- unless -
Next stunt: breaking a windshield with head after stopping abruptly due to driving off a bridge.

I predict it will only take one blow to break and the youtube video will be much shorter.

Who's up for sending him a few banjos?? Kill two birds with one stone.. laughing6-hehe

The other option is to send him a nice custom job with a laminated back of something nice, like three layers of oak or dogwood - say about 200 thou thick in total. Let him try to break that with his head....
