I too am interested to see the separation at the glue joint. Robbie can you tell us what glue you used here?

Also I can't tell from the picture but are those tentalones or kerfed linnings?

Anything we can learn from the post mortem?

Sorry about you misfortune.

I used titebond on this one. The kerfing actually broke in half with one part staying on the sides and one part staying on the top. Most of the binding stayed in place except for around the end wedge where the guitar hit the floor.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I have to say that from the
perspective of a repair person that is absolutely gorgeou$!
