Guitar smashing, yay or nay?

Johnny C:
Actually, a dissenting group of Mcluskiologists believes a better tag would be "fucking righteous." (bold theirs.)

GebStar:
I haven't seen a band smash their guitars, but I've seen a fair few of them trash their stage. Knocking over amps and trashing the drums, being all round cocks. I personally don't subscribe to stage trashing and I believe the same can be said about smashing guitars.

TrueNeutral:
Nay. I used to hate seeing bands do that because I pretty much couldn't afford a guitar of my own, and I felt pretty shitty about that. I wouldn't want to make anyone feel shitty.

Johnny C:
A local band, Rah Rah, consists of guitar, drums and trumpet, usually. In the intro to one of their songs the only instruments playing are trumpet and drums. The guitarist usually takes the opportunity to grab a drumstick and pretend to conduct them. He then throws the stick out into the crowd. This is the closest I've ever come to seeing a guitar smashing.

strawberry_gashes:
Yes, but that is different, as drum sticks are easily and fairly cheaply replaceable.  (When compared to guitars.)
But as for the original question, I say no, why waste a perfectly good guitar?  (Esp. when it could have been smashed over the head of a lame emo kid in the suburbs, instead of impressing the "hardcore" kids.)
