Yea, Tony, I've been seeing distressed and ""designer distressed" instruments for years.

Don't really get it, but, "whatever floats your boat". Funny thing is, I get asked about where I het antique instrument a lot. I have to say, "you little jerk, I bought it new"!

Last year, i was playing a Jazzmaster on my patio job that was older than all the wait staff!

CREAK, CREAK!
