Time to clean the dried sweat and beer from the guitars and survey the new dings.................................
There actually lives great looking guitars under the grunge when they're cleaned up......:rotflmao:
No new dings to report..........................

I'll bet you could scrape the black stuff off the bottom of the strings and sell it on Ebay as "Players Secret Formula To Expert Playing" and make a fortune. It might be easier than getting people to buy a thong with "Plank Spanker" on the front.

Why you say "might".
I'd say "would for sure".

Heheh, yeah...I have this one handbuilt custom strat which I *want* to get looking like it's very used. But don't want to outright 'age' it either.
It's pretty new, um, had it built in '08, but straight off the start I managed to get two huge chips/dings in it, and I decided it just looks good. Since then I've tried to get it dirtier and more dinged whenever I can - I leave it lying on the floor and drop it down from a little height when I'm done playing, let my kid play his cars on it, in practice I rub it against a mic stand, when adjusting the bridge I don't mind if the screwdriver slips or the grip rubs the paint when turned...rest my coffee mug on it and nevermind if I drop a li'l coffee on it...etc..etc...it's still pretty clean and not a lot of dings. I was thinking the next time I get a bleeding cut (which is almost daily) I have to try and remember to bleed over the guitar some.
I even pondered about putting it to a vent shaft on my friend's bar's smoking booth for a week to get a proper nicotine stain yellow going on, and maybe using duct tape to fasten the strap, then rip it off and apply again a bit to the side...hmm, good idea.
Or maybe I could just give it to my kid for a while to play with outside in the sandbox...yeah, that might work!
