A drop story, not a uke story. As our gig was about to start, I thought my strap was attached to my Taylor 814, but it was not. The guitar fell flat on its face. Broke through the gloss on two places at the bout. But the biggest damage was to the headstock down to the first fret. A crack!! I almost cried when I found it at the start of our third set.
I brought my guitar to Guitar Tex, clearly the best luthier in San Antonio. He took one look at the crack and said, as far as cracks go this was a good one. He said I wouldn't even see the glue or the crack when he was done. Lucky for me there was no internal damage to bracing, electronics, etc.
When I picked up the guitar a week later, he was right. He did a great job on the bout, and the crack. And since this guitar is a player that has done >500 gigs, I know that all of these bumps, repaired cracks, etc. just add to the sound, history and mystique of the guitar.
Sorry about you bumping your uke. Hope it adds to the mystique like it did for my guitar.
