The Peavey neck was in much better shape. Nothing against the Peavey, but it pales next to the Schecter. Certainly, though, it didn't deserve a place in the dumpster.

The more I tell this story to, the more theories I get as to why these guitars were thrown out.

1) Wife/girlfriend/mistress got pissed and hit back where it hurts (most of us) the worst.

2) Renter bolts after not being able to meet the payments and the owner/bank cleans house.

3) Barre chord practice finally sent someone over the edge.


Any other ideas?
