. . throw a guitar over your shoulder - though it does show that Fender headstocks can be broken sometimes.

    And that's why you always use straplocks.

    There's a split along the length of the neck from about the first fret to the D machinehead, roughly in line with the truss rod (which is probably why it split there). It's visible at 2'18" if you don't want to waste another three minutes of your life watching the whole thing.

    Difficult to repair, too. It would be hard to get glue into it properly.

    Ah, didn't watch it that far. Cheers. Serves the bugger right.

    And THAT Ladies and Gents is what happens when Brian Wampler gets bored during the making of one of his Pedal Demo Videos.

    Dumb thing to do to a decent guitar, not that he needs us to tell him that!

    I once did exactly that - it hit a wall and nearly snapped the head off -  lucky you could hardly tell after the repair -  I bought some straplocks immediately lol :)
