    Consider all of the above, and take your pick.

    This is the most likely outcome, yes. It'll almost certainly be in a skip by the end of the week.

    Easily fixable yourself for low cost.

    What you need is Titebond liquid hide wood glue. Luthiers use this. Get it in any decent woodworking supplies place such as Joe McKenna in Limerick or The Carpentry Store in Naas.

    You may also need a few clamps. Cheap ones from Mr. Price will do.

    I am a skill-less fool and I managed it on a 12-string with a very awkwardly split headstock. Leave clamped for 48 hours. The aesthetic was sacrificed (don't care as I don't gig) somewhat but it stilll plays A1 some three years later.

    Back from the dead basically for a sub €30 outlay.
