I personally find it very intriguing that getting a distressed price on a used guitar isn't enough, he's got to go off and depreciate the thing further [cough]:poser:[/poser] by damaging it.
Going back to the day when before there really was any "replacement parts industry" and you had to get parts from the Fender factory, it was a BITCH to get any kind of parts.
For example: in 82 I think it was, while Fender was still operating out of Brea, I call up Brea to get the parts department.
I go "yeah hey, I got a three-bolt plate Strat and I think I stripped or sweat-rusted out the screw, the neck-mount disc, or the plate or all THREE pieces. I need a price for the plate or the disc."
And I get attitude like "we've never given out these assemblies."
I go Yeah, well what about when a guy's hand rusts the plate so deeply, the big screw won't seat tight and to the point he's getting Trem-O-Neck issues? What about that, you've got to have the parts?
And she (warranty parts dept) goes "i only have a price of $83 bucks for the entire assembly of 3-plates, the neck screws' gonna be 11 extra and the other two woodscrews are 5 bucks but I may be able to throw those in."
FUCK that. I hated Fender ever since.
My point in relating that one is twofold: 1) only a fucking POSER wants to fake play-wear on a decent-shape axe, like he's some kind of Million-Hour Marcher or some shit and 2) take it from a guy who's distressed guitars the natural way - the decent-shape axes are MORE preferrable to the worn-outs by far.
The only times I've preferred distressed guitars, is because someone took the time over that one's course of ownership to give it a proper setup adjustment and maintained it for the gauge of strings I also played. That's about it. I'm disgusted by this thread and the very thought of thrashing that poor body is not alright.Comment

As usual, only a mental midget (literally) like Clay can say one one hand how he hates relics and then in the next post give google advice on how to relic.
The typical STFU Gar is appropriate here but the point Clay just can't seem to grasp is.........people that have the ability to modify their equipment to suit their own tastes/needs, regardless of resale value, is the heart and soul of the rock-n-roll attitude! That fuck the establishment I'll do what I want, my way, by myself!
That spirit reminds me of another guitarist I heard of........he couldn't find a guitar that suited his needs and through trial and error made his own guitar and modified his equipment to get a pretty decent sound. You may have heard of him or seen his guitar..............

No moron......like pussy, you still don't get it! Modding your guitar or doing a relic job on it to suit your own needs is a personal choice and has nothing to do with resale or value. Most real musicians, unlike you, will mod their shit to suit their playing needs and not worry about how much they can sell it for, jackass.
Do I need to get the crayons out and draw you a fucking picture, you idiot!
Never mind.....arguing with you reminds me of one of my favorite sayings! "Never argue with a fool, bystanders can't tell the who's who".

Let me slow is down for you, Forrest.......it's............his............guita r............and...........he...........can....... ....do..............whatever.............the...... ....fuck.........he.........wants.......to.
Why would anyone care what you say? I have snares, bass pedals, amps, speakers and so on from when I was 14 years old that I have never even thought of selling and don't care what they are worth to someone else. To me they are priceless or tools of the trade........you know, (strike that, you don't know shit) what actual players use.Originally posted by vandeleurE- Jesus .
