And I fold....
The paint-over-sunburst thing is particularly awful. I kind of get the very light relicing, though I’d be too embarrassed to have one, but the full on distress stuff is just nonsense.
cookiemonster-
Yup. I think back in the day if the sunburst was awful and didn't pass quality control, they'd paint over it. But, I can't be that many guitar's they did this with.
I just couldn't imagine paying £4k for a guitar which was a) faux aged, and b) I'd paid extra for this feature.
It feels a lot like Ikea Malm drawers that have been painted, sanded and somebody is trying to sell it for triple the price on Etsy as "aged".
