This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

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?
