Didn't there used to be a guy
around on here that claimed

fixing up old donated steel
guitars for young people?

Does the high school/tech school have wood/metal shops like they did back when I went to school? They should send the instruments to the shops for fixin'.

Heck, they can't do any worse to them than the condition they are currently in! And, they might actually learn a "trade," to work with their hands, figure things out... Wink
