=./.= wont it look sucky

ya, thats a great idea!!^^ i might consider that if the cost is too high
my guitar model is a black ibanez Gio
lol.hehe might do that.

well,i might take it to the shop on friday.
after reading wat u guys write, it seems that it wont look great if i juz srpay that area?? =,.,= haizz........
donno wat to do lo. i cant sleep until 4.30am because cant stop thinking bout my guitar

my neck doesnt seem to have any faults.
but i donno about the pickup or anything inside,havent plug in the Amplifier.
do u think i should ask him to un-screw and check the inside ?

I think its more better and cheaper if u put sticker (Unless something is broken inside). Tell your friend to buy the sticker for you. I'm not sure if you can blame your friend, because it might have just been an accident he never thought could happen, if he is not a guitar player, most likely he would not know how to take care of a guitar and place the guitar in a way so that it wouldn't fall. But if he took your guitar without permission, for the fun of it, without permission, and he's a guitar player then he must be responsible for it. At least pay half for the recovery.

well,his not a guitar player. my head already want to Blow liao.
I watch the process of the guitar falling in front of my eye.

i would take to the shop first and see how lo.
if too expensive i think i go with sticker.

(and is it possible that the inside of the guitar is damage???(drop from chair)

Highly unlikely, but plug into an amp and see if the pickups work.

i agree with the sticker suggestion. a gio is just a beginner's guitar. not worthed to spray the whole body. would probably cost around 300-500 or even more to airbrush the whole body.

spraying the dented part may work since yours is just black. just use spray can for cheaper option and some epoxy filler.

as with the others, the concern is the playability of the guitar. the electronics has little chance of dmg as they are inside the body. it's the neck. falling from a chair's height could seriously dmg the neck, even though you can't really see visible marks. there must be some after effect from the fall. check and double check. most likely you need to re-setup the guitar.

well the pickup works!!

but the noise from the distortion appeared to be louder or is it juz me..

Hahahah.... well, don't worry man... Like everyone says, it's the scars of war... let it be. It adds character to the guitar and you can have a tale to tell to it....

haha,u got that right. better to have a tale to tell and have a experince in life and not repeat the same mistake again^^

well,im still young so this a lesson told,lesson learn^^

At least this didnt happen in a expensive like u lowyatier have

let the scar be there man!!

tats wat musicians called a "seasoned" instrument haha
just like how u see all those custom chops create wear on a brand new gita
u r custom-ing urs

damn! your axe is just so PUNK ROCK!

dude i also dropped my own guitar in front of my eyes. left it on the chair, and it dropped hard!

the switch is now jammed (stuck at rhythm). but im not sure if the pickups are damaged, because my amp also sucks - lots of buzzing.

i had some chips at the back of the guitar. neck i think no damage...
mine's a neck-thru...are neck-thru guitars better?

btw my guitar veli cheap only.. SX lespaul copy..

Ya... let it be man... you should learn how curt cobain, Yngwie Malsteen smash and burnt their guitars on stage... be a hardcore player.. the more scar, the more you'll become guitar expert.. next you can try to play with teeth and bytes all those rusty strings...

wah
tat guy must have damn good teeth

but i dont think i will bite my guitar

what, yngwie's too good for burgers now?

ongpohheng: if it's a relatively small ding, you could try masking it with black nail polish. it dries quick, and is glossy.

Yngwie and kurt cobain are rich....poor musicians like us must jaga our gear properly...battle scars are cool,but SRV's guitar...

i think u r worrying too much ... since the neck n every other part is ok, just paint back that small chipped part in black la .. use permanent marker or something. from far when u're performing ppl won't realize anything wan ..

lagipun it's a GIO ibanez (not to put u down or anything) .. but next time when u get a better guitar u'll sure want to throw your GIO at the wall or something, or stage a drop from another chair again or something for ur GIO ... hehheehee..

black? i can show you something i did on a black guitar of mine...filled up some bare wood spots with nail polish...
you can still see the outline of where the bare spot was...cos of the guitar's poly finish.

Curt cobain dead already laa...

jammaster : eh.. u're al? al hambra, rite?

But sometimes, cracked guitars actually sound better!
the guitarist for A Perfect Circle SWEARS by his broken neck Les Paul Standard and says "it sounds better when I accidentally cracked the neck one day." Zakk's infamous Bottlecapped Les Paul, Rebel, also has a broken neck, but he still absolutely loves that guitar and still says it's one of the better sounding Les Pauls he has..... now THAT guitar is throughly bruised and abused! Even set on fire!
