Battered with that "now looked after" smug expression? Or do you prefer them basted?

Yes, its great to see a beautiful, perfect condition Ric, but as a player/weekend warrior, I don't mind seeing wear on an instrument, even to the point of "shabby". To me, its more important it plays and sounds good. Worn guitars can have a definite personailty and can give them that rock and roll or bluesy flair. Heck, some people are paying top dollar for fake-worn new guitars. You've got the real deal! I say keep it that way!

Yes, so long as it is a healthyish batter, so not deep fried. A good working batter with plenty of shelf life!!!!
