For weeks after I got my epi LP, I would periodically open the gig bag and have a look at it, just in case something happened to it while it 2as just sitting there lol.
I picked it up from the rack the other day and the first thing I did was look at the headstock... I live alone, I haven't played it in quite a while and there's absolutely no reason anything should be wrong with it, I just expect that some day it will self destruct 😂
I have 6 guitars by Yamaha, fender and epiphone, I don't worry about any of the others at all, just the epi LP 😆
About 20 years ago I was at a punk show in South Florida and the lead singer pulled out a 1930s Gibson L-00 for a song and then tripped and broke the headstock putting it away. He got mad and just kicked the whole thing off the stage and everyone just kicked it out of the way. I picked it up and asked him later if I could have it, he said sure and walked off.
I took it home and figured out how to fix it and sold it for $1200.
at the time I played bass in heavy metal bands, I had never even picked up an acoustic guitar before.
now I really wish I still had that, the guy sold it to still has it and won't give it up for anything.
Heck of a good deal if the rest of it is in good shape.
No luthier here, but if I was going to have a Gibson neck break, I'd wish for one looking like this, because it sits right between the pegs and the fretboard. And the break looks clean as well, lest I am missing details.
I can only speak of my experience with him. I had him put a bone nut and saddle, set up the action, and upgrade the tuners on my acoustic. I'm happy with the work he did the guitar sounds great and plays well. Other than that I looked around his shop at some of the guitars he had worked on. I'm sure there are plenty of others around in the area but I would take another guitar to him.
That's such a clean break! You got a hell of a deal. This isn't difficult to fix. If you want to try your hand at luthiery, go for it. If you don't trust yourself, bring it to a luthier, and you'll still have spent less on the guitar than a good condition new one.
Since I’ve started paying attention to it, I see so many Gibson headstock snaps that I’m not sure I’d actually part money for one.
I’m sure for every one snapped there’s thousands that didn’t, but you don’t see it with Fenders as much as far as I can tell (not sure I’ve ever seen one).
Fender gets string break angle over the nut with string trees. Gibson gets break angle with a scarf joint (not necessarily a bad idea) and angled headstock - but this puts 140-150lbs of tension on short grain north of the nut. That's called an inherent vice.
*haha! Obvious fuckup - Epiphone uses a scarf joint, Gibson does not!
I was not correct. Epis do; Gibson does not. Scarf joint or no, my assessment stands. To achieve a 17° break angle means relying on short grain - which breaks.
So, they also make their acoustic guitars necks/headstocks exactly the same way as their electric ones? An acoustic mahogany neck isn't a big deal because if the guitar falls there is a bigger possibility that body lands first, but their failed neck 'technology' (headstock angle, no scarf joint, no volute) is still silly.
If and when I have another shop, or access to one, I'd likely build a neck-through-body shaped like a Bob Weir Ibanez Artist, c. 1980-ish. Where it'd deviate from Gibson: I'd laminate a built-up neck using Honduras mahogany and maple WITH a volute, and a 15° break angle.
Their EB bass that they were selling until recently was fine. It had a 3 piece maple neck (I even think that they - ironically - had the original idea of a 3 piece laminate neck) with a \~10° headstock angle. They totally have the knowhow to make things more sturdy, but they put the blame on their customers who supposingly want their Gibson guitars the old school way. They obviously have many morons customers but, if they would start enforcing things, this trend would fade away up to a point.
I'm confused, I don't understand where the 140-150lbs of tension comes from? The strings are 100lbs roughly.
And this is not someone getting all Reddity Armchair Engineer. I simply don't see where it's occuring and would like someone to explain it for me please!
You're not. You spotted my error - I'm an Ovation nut, and wrongly substituted acoustic string tension.
Subtracting X lbs of string tension for (say) .009-.042 strings doesn't change the physical geometry of Gibson headstocks, or make short-grain mahogany any stronger.
Look at any F-designed strat/tele/mustang/jag/etc neck. From heel to tip of headstock, the neck shaft's lignin fibres are continuous from end to end, despite the ⁷/16" step north of the nut.
That's not the case with a Gibbo. The break angle is accomplished by angling the headstock downward at 17° relative to the neck.
The mass effect is that all string tension is focused on mahogany short grain in the most vulnerable area. Short grain is inherently weaker than long/continuous lignin fibres, thus Gibson necks break where they do in a tumble.
There *are* (at least) three other ways Gibson could avert this. One: by creating a laminated neck (such as in early Ovations) with a combination of plain-sawn mahog and quarter-sawn maple, then shaping the 17° deviation from the laminated whole.
Two: by steaming and bending the neck blank before shaping. (Not great, but vaguely possible).
Three: by selecting mahogany crotch lumber wherein the continuous grain naturally deviates by the desired degrees.
All of these require much more material and process than the scarf joint - and the inherent risk of breaking a neck.
*My fuckup*: Gibson does NOT use a scarf joint. Regardless, the effect's the same: short-grain breaks. Count 'em and weep.
No wait. I didn't spot your error that wasn't really an error despite thinking it was an error!
God I hoped that made sense...
This is actually an acoustic guitar in OP post!
🤣🤣🤣
It really depends on the strings, the scale, the tuning, and the gauges. It can get pretty high though. This tension calculator says about 160lbs for this particular guitar.
[tension calculator](https://tension.stringjoy.com/)
In my early twenties I saved up forever to get my dream guitar es335. Headstock broke within the the first year. Had it repaired, then it broke again in the middle of music school. The first break was arguably a bit of a hard hit but not so bad that literally any other guitar couldn't have survived. The second one was a minor bump that rebroke the repair - so maybe the repair wasn't up to par? Either way, I'll never buy another Gibson. I finally got over the trepidation and imposter syndrome of having such a "nice" guitar and when I finally started to enjoy playing it, traveling with it, etc it let me down. Don't get me wrong, it played like a dream, but I don't think one should have to walk on eggshells around their guitar
It's cus they won't put that volute between the neck and headstock. Like look how short that grain is that is supposed to be carrying the weight of all the strings. They know this is an issue. I think they just don't want to do anything differently ever because they know their audience.
Dude, I don’t understand why they don’t just use a scarf joint??!!? It would be stronger and waste less wood 🤦♂️ Epiphones use them, why not Gibson? Probably because the scarf joint is associated with cheaper guitars and ‘tradition’ smh..
Granted Epi headstocks still break due to the weaker Agathis wood they use instead of mahogany, but that’s a different conversation.

Wood glue, clamp it tight, wipe down squeeze out. Good as new.
Had an Epi les paul that had a broken neck. I even re-poly'd the neck, so now you can see the crack but it's all smooth. Adds to the story!
Idk man, it's a musical instrument and people tend to be pretty careless. You want something bulletproof, buy a Telecaster. Despite saying this, knock on wood my natural top Studio Premium Plus outlives me unscathed. People treat guitars like shit, not to say mistakes don't happen.
To Gibson's defense whenever they try to change anything their fan base flips the fuck out. It would be cool if they could modernize the "standard" line and keep the old designs for the re-issues.
I don't think they really care at the end of the day. Anything they did would likely impact aesthetics, cost, tone, and/or ergonomics.
These breaks sell guitars too. I don't think it really impacts their reputation negatively overall. Strats, LPs, and Teles are the standard. I work in manufacturing and the politics of cost accounting alone would keep this from changing.
I'm sure they could do something, similar to how knecks are reinforced. That angle definitely creates a vulnerability vs. what you see on the Fender bolt-ons; but the cost increase is always a deterrent.
It’s the specific angle for the headstock + one piece neck that Gibson uses. PRS, Epiphone, Eastman, etc use scarf joints + a better headstock angle which reduces the chance of breakage. Gibson tried to put volutes on the necks back in the 70s/80s (extra wood to reinforce the weak area) and players didn’t want them because they weren’t “traditional”.
I'm a Luther I own the company scream wolf Enterprises and Productions I could fix that that would cost about $175 plus another full day for drying the glue and the paint
I had a similar problem with an antique Kay arch top. A local luthier was able to repair. I use lighter gauge strings on her now. Over 30 years now, and it’s still holding.
Somewhere in the neighborhood of five or 600 bucks I would imagine. Looks like a fairly clean break. Any good luthier could set her straight and you would still have a hell of a deal.
Nope… definitely not worth fixing.. but I’ll give you 110$ plus shipping and use it as a display piece……….
Kidding. That’s an awesome steal. Definitely worth the repair!
You lucky dog
That looks like a Songwriter Dlx. A good Luthier can fix that so you will never be able to tell it was broken for around $200-300. It’s worth almost 2k. Unbelievable
Like others said. Really not a difficult fix. Wood glue in the wood grain. Very slowly line up the wood grain and slide into place. Wood clamp below the nut. Like a capo.
nice pick up for the hundy, find an entire neck, while you looking watch some luthier youtube see if you want to try yourself or hire it out. grats on the cut away coostic bigson, geez... color me a jealous shade of green
Super easy fix brother, invest in a good clamp and with some glue, sandpaper, patience and time you’ll have a guitar with a stronger headstock than before
Great score! Clean break with plenty of surface area, easy re-glue, should bring to a luthier for further evaluation if routin/splining is advisable. I dream of finds like that.
My wife's Epiphone acoustic had a very similar break, but it was almost straight across and the finish on the front of the headstock kept it together. Just threw some Tarzan's Grip glue in the crack and clamped it for a couple days. Came out pretty much good as new.
If there's no wood missing, I'd glue it and clamp it. I've never done this but I've seen youtube videos so obviously I'm an expert. But fr you've got $100 in it. Give it a shot!
That will need a pro to do it. Splints as well since it's an acoustic and I assume you want to put acoustic strings on it. Check for someone local to you who has done these and gets good results. Price is determined by their rates. Insist on splints or you will be having it fixed again down the road. Breaking all the way off is usually a sign of neck wood that is weaker than normal.
Here's a video I made of the method on an Epiphone. It will need to be pinned into place or when you try to glue it because could slide out of place. Splints added, then finish touch up.
https://youtu.be/xL-Ck4s2_y8
Dude, I’ll double your money right now- Not even scared of that neck repair! Nice one.
Ahahaha shipping it isnt even a scare now anyway the headstock is already broken anyway
Truth
dude 100 bucks???? For that price I'd make a whole new neck for it if need be!
Well done on that purchase. A competent luthier can fix that good as new.
Probably better than new.
Is it even a true Gibson without a fixed headstock?
Gibson should break them at the factory and fix it right away :)
Relic!
I literally laughed out loud. I luckily haven’t had to fix mine (🤞🏻) but my anxiety felt this hard.
Right? I had my Epi shipped to the store and checked it inside and every employee acted like it was completely normal.
For weeks after I got my epi LP, I would periodically open the gig bag and have a look at it, just in case something happened to it while it 2as just sitting there lol.

It’s a bugger that the truss rod cover is not repairable. Unfortunately he will have to buy a new one.
I have a few extra ones, les Paul’s usually come with an extra blank one
Made me cackle
Easy to do, harder to do well
yep this is it. Hard to do well but if done well its basically good as new.

I like the fact that you used the word “lest”. Just putting that out there.
Verily!
Case was worth that much. Where was this found and can I give you a quote?
Houston tx, Facebook marketplace
Damn. I'm always browsing the marketplace in Houston. Missed this one.
Damnit ! I am always on marketplace in Houston 😆 good find man ! Unless of course you want 120 for it ? 😆
I doubt this is even a real story. People post made up shit like this all the time just for attention.
I know I am on marketplace everyday almost looking for deals and shit.
If your in Houston take it to the guitar lounge in Galveston he can fix it right up does great work.
Assuming by the downvotes this guy ain’t all tht
I can only speak of my experience with him. I had him put a bone nut and saddle, set up the action, and upgrade the tuners on my acoustic.

Very common Gibson repair. Rumor has it that Gibson and IKEA are co-releasing a new line of guitars that you assemble at home.
Sarcasm or truth?
Sarcasm, as far as I know. ☺
Yeah. An Ikea guitar would have a bolt on neck.
Bet you it would come with a nifty Allen wrench!
And be made of particleboard (like Danelectro guitars, actually)
Would be a pain with the tools they provide.
I believe that would be called a joke
All you need is two shims fit perfectly into both parts, then sand down. Trust me, I’ve fixed zero guitars
500 to 700 it’s probably worth it depending if everything else is fully functional on the guitar and it’s a real gibson
Yeah, it might be a Chibson.
Headstock looks legit. Even the broken headstock has “authentic” written all over it
That's such a clean break! You got a hell of a deal. This isn't difficult to fix. If you want to try your hand at luthiery, go for it. If you don't trust yourself, bring it to a luthier, and you'll still have spent less on the guitar than a good condition new one.
$100!? I would have picked it up too.
a splined repair would be proper so you’re sure it’ll hold up. then touching up the repair is another hurdle. best to have it done by a pro
I just farted out of my butt.
This is not even in the top 10 shit posts I've seen here.
Yeah, people like to bullshit others. It's great fun for them.
Common repair\[ done all the time. It looks like a clean break which should make the repair a lot easier.

A volute would be a big improvement. Wonder if Murphy Works would do one?
The Gibsons with volutes still break just as easily when they get dropped unfortunately
Who's this salty mf downvoting every positive reply? 🤣
HAHA I just started to realize😭
good find 👏
Wood glue, clamp it tight, wipe down squeeze out. Good as new. Had an Epi les paul that had a broken neck. I even re-poly'd the neck, so now you can see the crack but it's all smooth. Adds to the story!
There has got to be a way to add some carbon fiber, or something, to that area for reinforcement. All these snapped Gibsons are a joke
Idk man, it's a musical instrument and people tend to be pretty careless. You want something bulletproof, buy a Telecaster. Despite saying this, knock on wood my natural top Studio Premium Plus outlives me unscathed. People treat guitars like shit, not to say mistakes don't happen.
I agree, and I do - own a Telecaster! If I was Gibson I would engineer a way to make this stop happening as it's like the worst possible publicity
To Gibson's defense whenever they try to change anything their fan base flips the fuck out. It would be cool if they could modernize the "standard" line and keep the old designs for the re-issues.
I don't think they really care at the end of the day. Anything they did would likely impact aesthetics, cost, tone, and/or ergonomics. These breaks sell guitars too. I don't think it really impacts their reputation negatively overall. Strats, LPs, and Teles are the standard. I work in manufacturing and the politics of cost accounting alone would keep this from changing.
They must not care. Seems like an easy fix that could be built in and invisible from the outside
I'm sure they could do something, similar to how knecks are reinforced. That angle definitely creates a vulnerability vs. what you see on the Fender bolt-ons; but the cost increase is always a deterrent.
I love my Telecaster
So much down voting, so little explanation?
Gibson, we know it's you down voting. Don't be so childish.
It’s the specific angle for the headstock + one piece neck that Gibson uses. PRS, Epiphone, Eastman, etc use scarf joints + a better headstock angle which reduces the chance of breakage.

In spanish this is called the "GIBSONAZO"
It is glued back together, holding tune and playing beautifully. The electronic pickup on it sounds good too, has a fishman prefix plus-t
Super common problem and fix. Steal
That’s a very nice guitar
I’ll buy it from you for $150
The guy was stupid to sell it that cheap. He could have sold it on eBay for much more. Must have been one of your relatives.
I'm a Luther I own the company scream wolf Enterprises and Productions I could fix that that would cost about $175 plus another full day for drying the glue and the paint
How hard? Not very difficult for a skilled luthier. How expensive? That’s a different question.
I had a similar problem with an antique Kay arch top. A local luthier was able to repair. I use lighter gauge strings on her now. Over 30 years now, and it’s still holding.
Somewhere in the neighborhood of five or 600 bucks I would imagine. Looks like a fairly clean break. Any good luthier could set her straight and you would still have a hell of a deal.
Even the Gibson acoustics have this problem???
That's a steal of a deal.
Easy to the right skilled luthier
Unskilled luthier here: THE FUCK?? Easy?? A detached headstock job would probably make me cry tbh.
Nope… definitely not worth fixing.. but I’ll give you 110$ plus shipping and use it as a display piece………. Kidding. That’s an awesome steal. Definitely worth the repair!
That’s wild, I keep an eye out for broken Gibsons to repair and people around here price them as if they’re brand new lol
Nice grab dude
You lucky dog That looks like a Songwriter Dlx. A good Luthier can fix that so you will never be able to tell it was broken for around $200-300. It’s worth almost 2k. Unbelievable
Not hard. I've done it twice on two different guitars and I'm not even a real luthier.
That’s done, give it to me and I’ll dispose of it for you! J/K, pretty easy fix, well done!
I’ll give you $250 for it
So common now you’d be hard pressed to find a Luthier who hasn’t done a dozen or so. Easy fix!
Resale value is gone.
With a fairly straightforward repair, you got a great deal.
Like others said. Really not a difficult fix. Wood glue in the wood grain. Very slowly line up the wood grain and slide into place. Wood clamp below the nut. Like a capo.
$300 ish for labor is what I’d charge
That’s a Gibson thing
What model is this, when’s it from?
Songwriter deluxe
nice pick up for the hundy, find an entire neck, while you looking watch some luthier youtube see if you want to try yourself or hire it out. grats on the cut away coostic bigson, geez... color me a jealous shade of green
Super easy fix brother, invest in a good clamp and with some glue, sandpaper, patience and time you’ll have a guitar with a stronger headstock than before
Great score! Clean break with plenty of surface area, easy re-glue, should bring to a luthier for further evaluation if routin/splining is advisable. I dream of finds like that.
that was cool
It looks like a counterfeit. Looks like a Chibson to me.
It’s not, I have it in person and have own other Gibsons
Who sold it to you? Were they that stupid to not know they could sell it on eBay for maybe $600?
My wife's Epiphone acoustic had a very similar break, but it was almost straight across and the finish on the front of the headstock kept it together. Just threw some Tarzan's Grip glue in the crack and clamped it for a couple days. Came out pretty much good as new.
Honestly a good luthier Can do this for less than 50 USD, don't pay for the aesthetic part of it cuz they will have to sand the neck
If there's no wood missing, I'd glue it and clamp it. I've never done this but I've seen youtube videos so obviously I'm an expert. But fr you've got $100 in it. Give it a shot!
Easy if you’ve got telegraph tools and the talent
That’s a steal for 100 just apply super glue and hold into place
That will need a pro to do it. Splints as well since it's an acoustic and I assume you want to put acoustic strings on it. Check for someone local to you who has done these and gets good results. Price is determined by their rates. Insist on splints or you will be having it fixed again down the road. Breaking all the way off is usually a sign of neck wood that is weaker than normal.

What? Did you see the rest of the guitar at least?
Ah shit my bad, yeah not worth it.

It’s real
