I have a guitar to assess/start mending -if it's repairable I'll be dismantling it on Saturday
Lunch today is highly likely to be liquid, there may also be curry involved.
I'm looking at a new flat on Sunday.

What kind of guitar?

It's a mid-range acoustic
The action's terrible and I think the owner believed that the truss rod was there to adjust the action so he cranked it up to near breaking point.
If it's salveageable I'll get the neck off and reset the angle - it needs some new frets too.

Depending on the complexity of the break and the worth of the guitar* - that's repairable
Sometimes they break at the scarf joint and that's an easy repair.

*If it's a £100 plywood GLO** there's no point in a repair

Ah well
There's some good guitars out there for around the £200 mark - go round your local music shops and play some - I'm sure you'll find one you like.
If you're after something a bit different I have an Ovation double-neck for sale.
