Whompy's Guitar Smash

This is Whompy's big guitar smash at Wrock Chicago.

The guitar was later auctioned off on his myspace page with all proceeds going to HPA. The winning bid was $280.

The band is 'The Whomping Willows'. It doesn't matter WHY he smashed the guitar... but it ended up being sold and the money being given to a good cause. I don't know what kind of guitar it was, but I know that it was only worth about $40 according to Whompy himself.

why the fuck would you smash a guitar. not even badass.... WASTE of money. hope the strings snap in his face.

[rosworms]

um... because it was a $40 guitar and BECAUSE he smashed it, it got auctioned off and $280 was then donated to the HPA.

And because it made girls scream and swoon over him. Duh....

where the hell did he get a 40$ guitar

[rosworms]

you'd be surprised what deals Matt can find when he needs to. See the 'No New Stuff' videos he puts up for the Harry Potter Alliance.

Hey, I'm working on a fun little video project revolving around Whompy's smashed guitar - is it okay if I used portions of this video?

[rosworms]

ya, go ahead.

That was stupid. Why ruin a perfectly good guitar?

[666carnifex]

that was a sturdy guitar it never broke haha

[OForerunner0]

bet if that guitar were alive, it would beat the shit out of you too

If you have to wonder why he did it, then you obviously do not understand Wizard Rock. Go listen to mainstream trollers.

[theadrenalineband]

you want to see a band who can really smash equipment? try The Chariot on for size

[EddyUdatos]

Hard guitar! XD

@PimpinEskimo The question is, did yer guitar breaking on a carpeted floor teach u the general CRAPPINESS of Gibson? And btw I am wondering why the hell the guy unplugged it first....

[guitaristsd]

What a waste. Why not just auction off the guitar in one piece so someone can actually play it.

[birdy47]

omg, when you smash a guitar dont do it like a fucking robot. GO INSANE! watch some Who videos or Nirvana, now they are people who know how to smash equipment!

[PimpinEskimo]

The question is, How do you fail at breaking a perfectly good guitar.

Hell, Mine fell over on a carpeted floor and broke. And it to was an SG.

[reebocken]
