I wonder if her smashing style was like that of John Belushi in Animal House?

Hey now!  :-\

I have an Applause (Ovation with a different headstock) acoustic-electric and it's a pretty good bass with the deep bowl. I think the composite back would be pretty resilient, too.....

She made a convincing case of how she feels about marital infidelity.  Also, good mug shot.

I once put the chisel-tip of my Hohner Jack straight through the ply of a cheap cab... stayed in tune too...  pretty certain one of those would burst parts of the anatomy... :mrgreen:

Considering the damage described in the article, her guitar-smashing abilities shouldn't be questioned.  Pretty impressive.

"First offender"? asked the judge.

"No", said the accused, "I smashed a Gibson first, then a Fender".

It's hard to look at it without ads overtaking my computer.  But my lasting impression is that it was a look which was slightly unsettling.
