Great video! I like the fact that you've shown how each headstock repair is a bit unique, depending on the type & severity of the break and if someone has tried to fix the guitar before.

I feel so fortunate to have owned a Gibson SG for about 12 years without ever breaking the headstock.

A guitar body of mine had a crack like that around the neck pocket. This crack went pretty straight anyway (alder wood), so I spread it a little, then drilled 2 holes of 1mm as deep as I could go, and I injected thinned Titebond as deep as possible with a syringe and a very fine injection needle. It's now an absolutely rocksolid piece of wood again 👍

I acquired a PRS 408 wood library edition about 6 years ago. I was playing and my little girl was sitting on the bed listening and me being the smart guy that i sat it down on the bed and walked out of the room and i heard a loud thump... Kiddo kicked it off the bed, but i was very lucky that it didn't get damaged but strong all the headstock repairs reminds me to never leave it laying around unwatched

You got lucky! I very very rarely see PRS breaks though. I'm guessing its because of the shallow headstock angle.

I like a low-pressured air hose to send the glue even deeper. I'd give a pinky toe to be working there with y'all. Peace.

Stewmac. I suspect the Transtint company makes them for stewmac but not 100% sure.

You'd think that a guitar so flawed that an entire cottage industry has risen just to repair the same defect over and over might effect the value and viability of that brand... Instead, Gibson's are the most over prices guitars on the market.
