Show off your "TIPS"...

[GuerillaPete]

...I mean the tips of your pointy J/C guitars (Vs, Stars, Warriors, etc.)
Lets stick to body tips. No heads. Heads are too common. What kind of damage do you have? There are some legendary ones out there: Holmes, Hammett, Rhoads, etc.

Let see some bodies. Are they pristine like a virgin or raw and gnarly like an old mare.

Mine's small [insert pun]:

Wow, everyone is too shy.

Meh, all the headstocks on my Warriors are identical except the Made in USA or Professional decals.

No damage to the tips of my '00 RRR1T, but I can take pics tomorrow if you really want to see...

Here you go:



Usually I use to take care of my equipment, but this one (Performer Rhoads) just fell off the strap, landed on my amps footswitch and taught me the lesson to double check the strap and use strap locks.
As you can see it was quite a chunk that bursted of the upper wing, but I was able to glue it back on, so it's ok now.

Thanks Toe, but interested in seeing damage/battle scars/growing pains mostly.

I've toyed with the idea for a while now of playing a broke to hell Rhoads on stage. I'm talking 2"s of wing broken off, splinters, the works.

Gnarly, Charlie.

There used to be images (online) of some of Chris Holmes' guitars and the tips/wings on them were just beat-to-hell.

Shoulda gone with "Show me your TIPS!" for the title.

I'm super careful with my tips. These minor marks were on my Kelly when I got it.

I meant, close-up shots of some of the guitars and their tips, but yes, gnarly. And thanks for the URL.

OK, it took me a while to get around to it, but here's the wing-tips on my Danny Spitz Dinky Rhoads. Honest wear I guess, unless Christina Applegate dropped it LOL

Looks like Dan put it on the floor instead of a stand when he was done playing it.

My RR1T picked up its first ding around Christmas when it was assaulted on its stand by my Taylor guitar case. I'll have to bust out my camera and grab a shot. The chip is near the bottom wingtip. The actual edges on the tips are still in great shape though.
