Univox archtop - those of a nervous disposition may want to look away

guitarz.blogspot.com

BEFORE:
Here we have a nice example of a 1970s Univox archtop guitar...

AFTER:
...which was sadly reduced to this pile of rubble. What happened? Did someone trash it on stage in a Townshend-esque moment of passion?

No. It was allegedly destroyed by airline baggage handlers during transit, apparently despite being double-boxed. They couldn't have made a better demolition job if they had tried.

The moral is, I suppose, make sure you package your guitars ultra-securely if they ever have to by shipped airfreight. And seriously consider insurance.
