2/8. I have no clue what exactly to look for in the pictures. I like the relic look, but I refuse to pay extra for it.

6/8 for me - some of those were tough! Would love to see the scores of TGP'ers who generally hate all relics, but don't seem to have a problem paying several thousands of dollars for vintage instruments... :rolleyes:

Some just didn't look natural, or how it would really age.

You would think that major companies could do better though.

5/8, but the Malcolm guitar was more guess than anything else. Probably should have been 50%...

I remember, someone posted a Craig's List advert... this guy would relic your guitar the old fashioned way... by playing it.
You give him your guitar and he gigs it for 6 months and you get a true relic job. :lol:
