At least this guy has the good sense to practice in the provincial park before hitting the stage. Parks are getting so littered with snapped guitars these days. What happened to take only pictures, leave only footprints?

The way he rushes over and cradles his poor baby really makes this one. *Later, in Guitar Hospital* "He's dead Jim. Let him go."

The reigning champ. This GIF truly is 'The King of Swing". *kisses fingers like a chef as beige man cradles head* "Mmm, perfection."
No one knows what compels guitarists, aspiring or professional, to swing their guitars around their necks the second they pick up an axe. Some say it’s a defense mechanism, to deter would-be thieves and overzealous fans. Some say it’s a mating ritual, designed to impress members of the opposite sex. Others, specifically automotive engineer Ferdinand Porsche, say “A formally harmonious product needs no decoration; it should be elevated through pure form.” Pfft, yeah right, like there’s a good song out there that can’t be made better through some bitchin’ guitar spins! Anyway, if you absolutely need to perform a guitar spin, invest in one of these, lest you end up like the poor swingers above.
