Can't be sure, but I have a feeling that I have seen some photos somewhere of Reliced Fender Tweed amps, but they may have been very Ltd. editions for USA guitar shows.

Rather than a relic guitar, why not simply lug around a similarly distressed case, complete with torn vinyl, missing catches, broken hinges, string handle etc., all apparently held together by an over-abundant selection of stickers. This way you can look super cool and a real 'man of the road', while your pristine six-string lurks safely within. Better still, don't even bother with the contents at all, just pose with the empty packaging - it's a lot lighter, cheaper and no ability is required!

I see there is no-one who wants a roadworn guitar!!! ( cause it's just stupid )

I don't have a problem with guitars which show genuine wear and tear from years of use, but I can't get my head around why anyone would want (and pay a lot of money for) a new guitar to look like that!

It's so that punters (mainly other guitarists) will think that they have a genuine fifties or sixties instrument, and so that the 'charisma' of the guitar will appear to rub off on them.

hi mr bison if you dont understand it dont knock it or put it down . i remember in the 60`s all those old farts who did not understand the youth of the day with long hair making hero`s out of people playing guitars and saying where will it all end we cant trust the youth of today. perhaps you can remember back to those days because you are now saying the same things peter

Yes, My sister has a pair of jeans with massive holes in them and my friend has a t-shirt with holes in it aswell, I can't seem to find the meaning of it ????

Regards Sam.
