Tell me it’s not true

You have to be wearing chain mail when playing to get that level of relic on a regular guitar surely.

Relic's always remind me of 1980's wallpaper being half-ripped off the wall.

And running into a room full of chainsaws.

I love how the seller is keen to point out that the guitar hasn't got any dents or scratches that weren't factory relic'd.

Like it is still a badge of honour that the guitar is like new, even when the finish is beaten to shit and this goes for all relics.

I mean if it has rubs, scratches and dents who cares if it was done prior to or after the sale

Totally agree with you for realistic relics @FelineGuitars but makes total sense here, who wants a real scratch on their shiny plastic coated fake dent.

Original factory fake damage is worth more than genuine damage from use.

And there I was thinking that one of the prime justifications for relics was that it doesn't matter if you accidentally ding it... back to school for me.
