I read a funny post on another thread to the effect of a Guild guitar being favored in a bar fight due to its sturdy construction. While my playing at times has caused people to flee, I did once repel a biker who stormed my apartment after I'd told him not to. He attacked me and I clocked him with my Ventura. Drug him out by his heels and deposited him at the curb . His friends laughed it off and gave me a beer. Anyone else used their "axe" for such a purpose?

No, not yet. Sorta questions the notion of entertaining someone as a singer/player versus bothering them. I've always considered myself a bother and avoided any possible consequence of it.

The best guitar for self defense is a National.I’ve seen some with what are supposed to be bullet holes.

I remember that some years ago a guy stormed the stage while the Stones were playing...

Keith Richards pulled his guitar off, held it by the neck and gave the guy a major league swing and hit...

Then he strapped the guitar back on and went on playing...

Professionalism at it's finest...
