Fell off the wall. Must not have been put back properly. This hurts!

That wall it fell from...

Looks like it fell a looooong way.

I feel so bad for you.
Does your homeowner's ins by chance cover that sort of thing?
I sure hope so, man, that just makes you want to be sick.

Sorry Steve. Were you in the room when it happened, or did you just come in and find it lying on the floor screaming in pain?

What G8r said. That makes me think I need to check the integrity of all my hangers this weekend, and periodically thereafter.

Good luck 'Zilla. And please don't use those pics for the calendar OK? It would make for a very depressing month.

If I may ask, exactly how did it fall? Did the hangar come loose? Did it slip off the hangar somehow or what? I'm only asking for those of us that have wall hangars ourselves, just in case there's a detail we may have overlooked.

Whatever the case, if John and KK have your back, this will someday be just an unpleasant memory.

Again, best of luck!

Halloween season or not, those are the most gruesome images I've seen in a while… Sorry to hear about the accident, sounds like a remedy is in the making though… good luck…

Despite having wall hangers and guitar racks available, I tend to keep my best guitars in their cases, fearing that children, friends of children, or more likely my own clumsiness might knock one (or more) down if I leave them out for prolonged periods of time.

You just validated my paranoia…

Thanks for the condolences. The mishap was not a failure of the hanger. The only thing I can think of is human error, Whenever I put a guitar back on the hanger, I check to make sure it is seated securely. But the last time I played this guitar was Monday morning before work and I may have been a bit rushed and not fully checked it's fit on the hanger.

It's still a mystery though, last night I tried to find a way it would fit on the hanger and not fall immediately. Still can't figure it out but it must have been the way I put it on the hanger.

My son and daughter were in the next room and heard it fall. There was no one in the room at the time. It fell from about 5 feet onto hardwood floor. Weird, and sad.
