This thread is going to be a story thread. Hopefully not many people will have stories like mine, but I know some will.
It was yesterday on Christmas. I was playing my Cordoba concert ukulele the night before and I set it up on the side of the bed when I was done. The next day my family and I are getting ready to go to my sisters house and outside I hear a car screeching its tires, sounding like an accident is about to happen. I jumped up quickly to look out the window, my uke fell over from my bed and BAM, my heel goes right through the top of it. I'm a pretty big person and I'm actually surprised how easily my foot went through. There is a giant hole in the bottom half of my uke and my foot starts gushing blood from wood splinters sticking out of it. I had to pull about 4 big splinters out of the bottom of my foot. The ukulele is ruined 100%.
I do have other ukes, but I really loved this one. It was more of a "beater uke" for when I don't play my KoAloha or KPK ukes, so it's not AS important, but man did that hurt both physically and emotionally.
Does anyone have any stories of breaking their ukuleles? No matter how small the break or scratch was, I'd like to hear that I'm not alone here!
Here's the damage.
