Got me to thinking...How do the rest of us feel when our beloved guitars get a battle scar? :shock: I decided a long time ago that I would own my guitars and my guitars would not own me!! but, I still cringe a little bit when I hand one of my "family" over to someone and they inadvertently bang it into something or ding it or scratch it. Its really not that big a deal to me and some of my instruments have quite a few scars to prove it! I think it kind of gives them character...mojo if you will. Once the first ding is there I seem to be able to relax and not worry so much about it. What about the rest of you though? I know that some folks get sick to there stomachs when they hear that "smack"..you know the one...I dont usually sell my instruments and dont "invest" in one or more to make money so I am not concerned with the resale aspect of it .Some folks do tend to worry a lot about there guitars and I can understand and its fine! I just wondered how the rest of you felt.
