Guys, I'm really impressed with the beautiful instruments displayed on this thread...but I'm questionning myself...Do you get them just for show or do you actually play them??? And if so, what's your secret to keep them in this mint state? My guitars are kept clean and polish, but I just can't help the scratches and nicks from playing with them... and believe me, I'm always careful with handling but just can't help knocking them somewhere unexpected.
So either you guys are lucky and I'm not or I leave my instruments in their case!!! :-)

John: Lovely second photo. If you don't want that old block of wood shown in the first photo, I would be willing to take it off your hands if you pay the shipping.

Peter, nobody ships to Canada.

I'll pay shipping, John. You want my address?

Paul: This is hilarious. You cannot begin to imagine how true your statement is. Not only does it apply to receiving mail from the United States but also in sending it.

Dan. I do about 150-200 gigs a year & unfortunately, my gtrs do not keep in pristine condition. I have a really beat up 330 which still looks new in photos & from an audience perspective. When I get knocks on my 'players', even one as beautiful as my 1997FG shown earlier in this thread, then I don't mind so much, because I know they are going no-where.
I must confess to occasionaly thinking that it's a shame my 1997 has such gorgous wood on the front, as the gtr is going to be knocked about eventually. Another part of me is very happy that this gtr is being used as intended!
