Is a much cherished Gibson Dark Fire, hitting the ground face down.
Went for a jam with some students last night, I took a turn on drums and let one of them, an experienced guitarist have a play with my DF....yup..he dropped it...quite accidently of course, the strap slipped, ironic as the DF has strap locks, though they don't actually work on mine. ( Bad QC at Gibson there)
His face when it fell was almost worth the cost of the repairs. A new pickup selector switch and a volume knob..
Almost!
My own face must have also been quite a sight, as I sat there for several seconds trying hard to do a Sapphire and Steel style time reversal.
Ah well...no major damage done, the broken parts should be easy enough to replace, if I can find a source.
Was a horrible moment though, for all concerned.
