Don’t drink while gigging or this could happen to you. This poor guitar is at the local guitar store as a warning. In the meantime, where’d Charlie derrington make off to? I understand he has experience with repairs of this style. (Just to be clear, this is not my guitar)

Haha! 
all possible, I think whatever happened involved alcohol 
If they could fix Bill Monroes’ Mando after someone smashed it with a fireplace poker, anything is possible
Yep! Hence my Charlie D comment. But this guitar is a low to mid Taylor, so not worthwhile
Charlie got killed by a drunk driver in Nashville years ago: https://mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=93479
If I were king, drunk drivers would be tried as murderers. None of this “involuntary manslaughter” nonsense. I have zero respect for someone who knowingly endangers the lives of everyone around them.
