I was told a story about a fellow up north of here that owns/owned a pre-war Martin D45...yea, one of the real ones...pristine, mint condition. Well, he babied the guitar to a fault. I mean, who wouldn't really, considering what they're worth? Anyway, his toddler daughter had been trying really hard one day to get his attention and he just kept messing with that Martin. So somewhere along the way she spotted his car keys laying around and she picked them up and hurled them at him to get his attention. You guessed it...they landed square in the middle of the top of his D45. Can you say "gouge" boys and girls? I think the guy's priorities changed right on the spot, especially when he found himself holding his daughter up in the air. It is, after all, only a guitar.
These things get REAL complicated sometimes, and right quick too <G>.
