I guess ya fix a National with hammers and bondo, send it to a bumper re-chrome place to get it pretty again:} But fixin' a Macaferri, would ya use [lastic model glue? Actoally I have a jamin' budy that has a plastic Gibson Les Paul looking guitar. It plays ok for what it is. I hear there is an English company making a carbon fiber resonator guitar. Why not?
