Knocked the ribbon off the pickup too lol.
All in all probably lucky if no physical (permanent damage).

Might slot back in again okay. Will pop the springs off and give it a go.
If I were you, I would remove the trem and check the condition of the studs holes : if there is no crack in the wood around the studs holes, I think that you should be fine.
Also, you will perhaps have to file a little bit the knives, but that's an easy procedure (use masking tape to protect the Edge pro's finish).
EDIT : I should have said "you will perhaps have to use a file in order to sharpen a little bit the knives", I mean no harm to your trem knives

I'm glad there was no real damage.
That finish looks beautiful from what we can see in the pics.

Cheers man. Yeah was a real heart in mouth moment when opening the case. It has a cool
finish....pretty hard to come by these models. I'll do an NGD thread soon.

Did the seller had the strings loose? Otherwise it is a strange one for sure. Glad everything is ok!

@Samark I'm def cooling off for a bit now and just gonna wait on my customs.....I think ;-)
@Edika: I don't think they were slackened off as the G,B,E strings weren't. No harm done in the end though it was
a pretty alarming few seconds on opening the case.
@77zark77 I'll get an NGD done on this when I have it all cleaned up. Guitar arrived in a filthy state, strings are rusted
and it needs a fret polish and pickup adjustment. I'm gonna get that all done asap. Trying not to buy any more gear now
though it's difficult with this lockdown going on...lots of spare time to surf Ebay, Reverb etc.
