SILLY ME

I so should have had the presence of mind to take a "before" photo of this poor wee guitar.

Moral... Never lend your guitar to anyone!

The owner lent his grandfather's guitar to a psychopath who took a brutal rasp to the neck & varnished over his atrocities with a copal varnish suitable for boats.

I could give you a list of all the legion indignities the idiot inflicted on this wee innocent, breathe a sigh of relief! Let's just say he exceled himself...

Will do my best to make her good again.
