You're probably right about my daughter being repulsed by the 'vintage' state of this but there again she's a fourteen y/o into The Kinks, The Beatles, Hendrix, ELO, Wilbury's, Floyd, AC/DC, and Clapton so you can never tell....
You've certainly done a good job getting her into real music, fantastic.
Good shout on the music taste.
With regards to wear - there are a few things people always seem to get wrong:
1. Colour - the colour of these does indeed look like marker pen, it just shouldn't be that colour
2. The shape, Fender mess this up too - they use some sort of polisher to take it out, why would you have wear that runs almost to the previous fret? I have genuinely worn necks and yes the divots extend back but not that far
3. Wrong places, again think of the chord shapes/scale shapes that most people play - why would you get that wear all at the second fret?
4. Inconsistent - if it's worn this much, why hasn't the edge of the neck worn? You see that a lot people will sand the finish off the neck, do a reasonable job - but the body is immaculate, just doesn't add up - look at the big picture first
Does the owner have long, dirty fingernails?
