last night i broke my favourite acoustic guitar and i was fucking gutted!

it fell on its face and now the headstock is split from the neck, its still attached but hanging on by a wooden thread!

to be honest it only cost about £180.00 so im guessing any work that needs doing will far outweigh the original price, but ive had it for years and love everything about it. ive got guitars that are worth a heck of a lot more but this one is my favourite by miles!

anyways guys if anybody knows anyone or any company plkease get in touch!

cheers

BEN

you could try Tito Dalmedo in Preston.
He fixed my Jackson when the neck split and done a fantastic job. Plus he's done other bits and bobs for me.

I don't have his number. I always email him. He normally responds quite quickly

Can definately recommend Steve at http://www.manchesterguitartech.co.uk/
, (posted by Black Pilate). He did a neck repair on an Aria Semi-Acoustic and did a fantastic job. As long as it is a clean break, (scarf joint?), he can do a permanent fix.
