Worst "repair" I ever had to fix... Some airman broke the peghead on his Warwick bass - it was hanging on by the peghead veneer. Another airman covered the break using a hot glue gun, and then crushed it while clamping it up in a vise. Took me a week to get all that crap and splinters dug out so I could reglue with Titebond. Added screws just in case, and hid it all under some colored CA textured to look like woodgrain. Touched up the oil finish - good to go. |

I saw that turnbuckle "repair" quite some time ago on the net somewhere....I and marveled. The once backwards tuners are priceless. |

Sometimes duct tape and WD40 just aren't good enough, so you have to improvise. |
