Or they just think they look cool/play well/sound great like I've said multiple other times.

I've been playing PRS for more than 20 yrs. I can't understand musicians bashing a guitar manufacturer, especially the greatest American success story, (for guitars) in the last 30 years. I can't think of any acoustic guitar maker I would bash, there's something to like in them all.

Everyone has their likes and dislikes. With that said, I had to fast forward through the video as I just couldn’t watch the scraping, scratching, pounding and denting mayhem that was taking place.

I think the whole concept of relicing an instrument is purely for looks rather than sound..... when you relic an instrument your beating the hell out of the guitars body, not the electronics right? I know there are certain "ways" you can relic the pickups and whatnot but all in all its mostly wear and tear on the guitars body and neck mostly isn't it?

I too stumbled on this vid yesterday.
Tried not to watch - but I did. Like watching a road accident. I have a friend who makes a living making reliced solid electrics. I think it is like wearing an earing, or a tattoo - trying to project an image that ...may not be accurate.

There is a huge difference between self-mutilation and creative body jewelry. If you want to give your guitar a creative, individualized look, you have all the options today, e.g. with airbrush decorations and special paintwork. Many would do it that way and the money invested would also pay off when the guitar was sold.

Relics are a personal style. How about this.... Does an experienced player desire a relic more than a beginner.?? I think yes.

It's easily, by far, the dumbest video I've seen this year and I've been watching plenty of Ridiculousness.

You can never trust a guy with head tattoos.
