Being that I’m currently in Canada (and Dave Carroll is Canadian)…
Remember me posting about United Airlines breaking Dave Carroll’s $3500 Taylor guitar? If not, you can catch up on it here.
Some time ago, I invested in Instrument Insurance for every piece of equipment that I own. Maybe Dave should have thought about this! My insurance policy is with a great company that specializes in insuring musical equipment. They deal only with musical insurance and are pretty keen on the values, wear/tear, etc of musical equipment. Beware of just adding a rider policy onto your homeowner’s policy, you might not get full retail/appraisal value. You can read all about the company that I have my insurance with, Heritage Musical Insurance. They are great people and the insurance is definitely cheap considering the amount of dough that I’ve got wrapped up in instruments.(and Heritage is unwritten by Traveler’s).
The victim of United’s ‘guitar toss’ game, Dave Carroll, has just released Song 2 of the 3 songs that he promised to United Airlines. Check it out below, it’s pretty catchy.
