I won&#39t travel with guitars, at least not by air. I can&#39t imagine a case strong enough and padded enough to protect against typical baggage handling behavior.

It turns out that Dave Carroll has a statement about the response to his video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ay7hFIYQFnw I&#39m looking forward to song 2.

Thanks for alerting us to that "United Breaks Guitars" video. I got a HUGE kick out of it, and am still laughing! It&#39s musical, it&#39s funny, it wears well, and it really hits a raw spot. I used to fly a lot, and on one trip I actually saw the luggage handling behavior depicted. My two guitars (B.C. Rich B-38 acoustic, Martin D20-12) are in hard cases, but they wouldn&#39t&#39ve survived the baggage throwing I witnessed.
I wonder if David Carroll now dreads becoming better known as a novelty song artist?
