Today is like any normal Saturday where I will go to church for youth at 745pm and have music practice after that for the next day service.
I was so happy seeing my guitar skills improving from time to time. I played slightly faster than before and I feel I blended better with our church worship team too. Besides, I see great improvement in terms of coordination and teamwork among the team too. I really want to praise God for that.
But something sad happened...
After practice today, as usual I keep my beloved electric guitar into its bag and off I go. Suddenly,
"BANG!!"
Everybody in the church turned around and looked at me and at that second, I realized my guitar is on the floor. I remembered I zipped my guitar bag properly earlier on and I wondered how did my guitar dropped anyway. I then looked at d bag once again to find out.
THE ZIP GAVE WAY!!!
Immediately, I picked up my guitar and looked for any damage caused by the fall. Here is the result.
A different angle view.
And some scratches at the knob and a little crack. Can't really see here though.
Ok, continue. In my mind I was saying to myself, "cham liao this time. No cure liao. It will be a very horrible mark there dy. Will my guitar still sound as good?"
Many of my church friends are waiting to close the door, so I didn't get to test the sound. So, I rushed home and quickly plugged my guitar to my amp. All the strings ran out of tune and I quickly tune them back. I wonder anything in the guitar could spoil or not. After tuning, the sounds seems like the same. I really hope it wouldn't spoiled so fast eh... Only 4 months old nia. Hmm. I would be grateful if some of you can leave some comments for any guidance. Thanks.
Anyway this is how my guitar look in whole.
wah. kesian la... i read oso i feel the pain. lol

ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments. It sounds ok all just I feel annoyed by the sharp feeling below my arm. I need to get a sticker, a nice one to cover it. Lolx. I recently bought a new guitar bag tho, which cost rm100 and is totally satisfied with it for now la :)
