1939 Martin C-2 headstock repairs...Before/After Pics
 
This is a 1939 Martin C-2 that had the headstock busted in shipping due to poor packaging and rough handling.  The guitar was sent to me because the side had been damaged (13" clean side crack) but on it's way to me UPS broke the headstock.  Both the side crack and headstock repair were done while the guitar was here, befor and after pictures follow.  For tips on how to avoid this type of damage in shipping, go to my article on "packaging your guitar for shipping".
