GOYA STEEL-STRING ACOUSTIC

I bought this guitar in 1991.  I brought the guitar to the school I taught at and it would constantly get knocked to the ground.  Eventually the headstock split in half.  I glued it back together, and used it on my early albums 'The Adventures Of Bumblefoot', 'Hermit', and 'Hands'.  Then one day a friend bumped into it in the studio and it hit the ground and snapped in the same place.  I didn't bother fixing it.

It was going to be immortalized in the artwork for the 'Guitars Suck' album, but that didn't happen when the CD became '9.11' - here's the final photo of the Goya acoustic, taken August 2001...
