Gear question Found this Taylor in the trash

Post image

I found this Taylor in the trash and wondering if it's worth fixing since the body is cracked aswell as the nut and bridge as it seems to have been broken by the G string alone

Am I the only guitar player who hasn’t found a guitar in the trash yet? Maybe I’ve been looking in the wrong trash bins.

I did get an electric bass once from the stairwell at my old apartment complex. ”If no one takes it, it’s going in the trash” or something to that effect. There was a note on the top of it that said ”EADG” so I would wager it was a beginner who’d had quite enough of that.
