Dan,
That is a wicked looking injury. Did you break the toe? I did somthing like that 10 years ago. It took a month to heal and about a year before it would stop telling me every storm forecast. Very weather sensitive.
How are you going to use your twin instruments? Does each have a special place to be used?
Dad
I think the toe looks worse than it feels.
The guitars are not identical, with tone woods and hand craftsmanship they are all unique. The new one is surprisingly good. The older can now go visit the guitar repair man to fix the worn frets.
