Good grief, what's the story behind that??? I hope it's a publicity stunt......

(Actually, I wouldn't be at all surprised if Matt were to fix it).

From what I have seen on FacePalm, it was in a gig bag and was run over by a car. Could be wrong.

If it sounds a little flat, then perhaps there's a pinhole leak somewhere in the leadpipe...

It's an old pic - did the rounds a while back, which is why Joe said it is infamous...
Back then Joe did say he could probably repair it and I don't doubt that. Wonder what happened to it?
