    My Guitar Neck Just Cracked! (Pic) :(

    The guitar (Gibson Les Paul Standard) just got knocked and fell flat on it's front... I heard the snap



    This is a fucking beautiful guitar and plays like a fucking dream... I'm hoping I can get this fucker fixed good... it's gonna cost me Especially in the UK...

    Anyways... Gonna go cry now

                      Lots of people here that could fix it including gibson. Im in Nashville btw. Not a big gibson fan though, but they are nice guitars.

                                          Damn dude, sorry to hear that. I know I would be totally bummed if that happened to my LP Standard, but it does look like it was a clean break which should make for a solid fix.

                                                  Also, check out the Gibson Forums at http://www.gibson.com/relations/foru...n=topics&fid=3 because I know there are some UK guys on there and they may be able to point you to a good place to get it fixed...

Played it almost daily for 10+ years and grew rather attached to the thing. One day I sat it aginst the wall began to wall away then heard all hell break loose. Suffered the same fate as yours by falling on it's face except the neck broke completely off. Almost the same exact break as yours.

                                                                                                      I feel ya man, it sucks. I remember standing in one spot staring at it not wanting to believe what I was looking at.

Gibson repair shop use glue, AND then do some wierd thing that covers the whole area and more to give it strength and flexability.... So I'm waiting on a reply from them...
