Welcome to IWETHEY!

New There are some things you simply DO NOT CHECK
Among those I include:

Guitars
Primary Laptop Computers
Parachutes (for recreational skydiving). This last item is particularly important as I won't jump something outside of a trusted chain of custody and airlines aren't in my trust chain for that.
Medication.

I expect cremated remains might fall into that league for some folks. (Me, I'd just FEDEX them).

New Re: There are some things you simply DO NOT CHECK
Guitars.

I had a friend of mine fly to ABQ from SF, carrying along his brand new D-28. He knew to loosten the strings, but he checked it anyway.

Imagine his consternation when he open the case to show it off, stood it up, and watched helplessly as the head fell off the neck, connected now to the rest of the guitar by 6 flacid strings....

We were not amused!

"So don't pay attention to the approval ratings that say 68% of Americans disapprove of the job this man is doing. I ask you this, does that not also logically mean that 68% approve of the job he's not doing? Think about it. I haven't."

New Strings are one thing
the metal bar through the neck is another entirely.

Todd is correct. Never, ever, check a guitar.

New Yeah, The head broke off right above the metal bar.
Consider this lesson learned, in spades, by all where were present.
