In all seriousness, don’t hang out TV’s from cheap drywall screws. Heavy things need to be mounted to the studs in the wall. This just cost DMS a lot of money.
If I am not mistaken the guitar belongs to the person who hung the TV. DMS will not be covering damage to the guitar.
I’ll grab some pictures of the damage next time I am up there to sign our rent checks and stuff. It wasn’t a super fancy guitar but it did play pretty nice. It’s a shame it was hit.
B.B. King’s guitar “Lucille” had a car flip over on it and he was still able to play it. In fact, in his song “Lucille”, he said it saved him from getting crushed by the car. I understand that wasn’t a Gibson ES-335, but it wasn’t a car that fell on it either. I think it will be fine after it’s tuned. And the TV should be covered by the replacement plan. Wait. You did get the replacement plan, right? Lol.
As for the guitar, I’ve got personal experience with guitars being both indestructible and shockingly fragile. I had a strat that repeatedly got left on the patio in the rain and never needed anything other than new strings. I had a Yamaha bass that I bumped into an amp with and the head cracked and one of the keys broke completely off.
I’ll take a look at it when I go up to sign the rent checks and see if it’s salvageable.
It seems to be an acoustic/electric hybrid. The acoustic sound won’t be the same though with some woodworking salvageable. The frets, pickups, etc seem fine from an electric side but I didn’t plug it in. All the damage went to the back of the body
@Mrksls2 the main damage is on back, the neck seems straight and the action on the strings seem fine. I didn’t notice any buzzing or anything. Do you think you could fix it?
There is also a broken switch on the front but that’s an easy fix.
