A worn appearance is often desired on old guitars. In some cases, it can even increase its value.

That, and the OP probably did what would be considered finishing someone's puzzle for them.

Currently in the market for a vintage and, while I agree with your sentiment, unless the guitar's name is Trigger I've only seen prices drop with wear and tear.

It's very situational. Cracks and dings? No good. Natural checkering from age on an old acoustic? Higher value.

Doesn't Fender sell pre-worn guitars for a premium?
