Today, my sister was playing a rock star in a play. When she got home, she told me she used one of my old guitars, because I told her it was ok. I said she could take one to practice on, not destroy on stage. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my sister just had a huge fight with my mom. After that, she thought it was appropriate to smash my $1,000 guitar to "blow off some steam." FML
Today, I had to explain to my little sister that not all guitars are supposed to have a hole in them, that when I was talking about "breaking it in" I didn't mean I'd smash a hole in it, and that she shouldn't have taken a hammer to my expensive new guitar. FML
Today, my older brother puked in the sound hole of my sister's guitar. He blamed it on me, and in revenge my sister beat me with the guitar. FML
Today, after practicing a song for my girlfriend on guitar all day, I called her over to my house to show it to her. After a long speech about how "this is for you," I played for about 3 seconds before I broke a string, which slapped her in her face. FML
Today, my little brother watched an old video of The Who, who are know for smashing up their guitars and such. He decided it would be cool to try it with mine. That guitar was worth over $3000. FML
Today, after spending months learning how to play the guitar and memorizing the music to my girlfriend's all-time favorite song, I performed it for her. Her response? "Well, you kind of ruined that song for me now." FML
Today, my sister stole my bike and gave it to her boyfriend. When I told my parents, they said it was fine, because I wasn't using it anyway. The reason I wasn't using it was because it needed a new tire, and I was saving up for one. FML
Today, I went in my room to play my guitar. I found my Les Paul on the floor with all the strings missing. I later found out my grandma cut them off because I was playing "Devil's Music." FML
Today, I have a new guitar on its way. I forgot to make up a story, so now my wife won't be happy. FML
Today, I came home and was greeted by my dad telling me that he pawned my guitar for gas money. FML

Hope your parents can talk some sense into her though i hold little hope for that. Seriously, does she have no respect for others property? Since when did "You can borrow it" become "Do whatever you want with it?". Maybe I'm old fashioned (yet I'm only 20) but to me "You can borrow it" means "You can use it but please be carefull with it".

"Its obviously not too bad if you have more than one guitar." Then it's obviously won't be that bad for your parents when you murder her. Since they do have more than one kid

If your parents don't give her hell, here's what you got to do. When they're in a room with her, casually stop by the doorway and ask if you can "borrow" her (as in, "may I borrow susie for a moment?") as though you want to ask her a question. When you have her alone, beat the crap out of her and when your parents complain, tell them "You SAID I could borrow her!"

LOL. Yes, Lyndis.

FYL because a guitar is a magical thing and shouldn't be destroyed by anyone, but personally, no one touches my guitar except my luthier and me. Too much to lose there. And if you gave her an old one because you suspected she would destroy it, why are you complaining?

"she told me she used one of my old guitars". Implies to me that maybe it was a student model or one that OP wasn't using any longer. I said "if". "If" someone were to give someone an instrument and suspected they might damage it, wouldn't it be an old one you wouldn't be too disappointed if it broke? HS band instrument rentals work that way - freshmen get the old clunkers, seniors get the newest.

And that's why I don't loan my guitars to people who don't actually play.
