maybe if you wanted to keep your guitar looking like new, you should have bought one that was built to look like new. dingus.

he should sell it once it gets dirty and buy a clean one for next time.

The best way to clean forearm sweat off of a guitar is to wear long sleeves to a gig once in a while.

howie, the closet classic series is not a relic, but is finished to look like it was bought new and left in the case in the back of the closet from that day on...no relic'ing, just a slightly off-color fade on the finish and plastic, but otherwise completely new looking...

...the fact that he's an idiot goes more to the fact he doesn't know basic cleaning procedures...

Sigh! Do they know anything other than cork sniffing related things over there? Cleaning a guitar is pretty straightforward. Wipe it down when you're done playing, and your'e good to go. If that's not enough to do the job, then use any one of the myriad guitar cleaning products out there. If you don't want to worry about it looking "too clean & shiny", then don't buy an artificially aged guitar.

i disagree that a closet classic is not a relic. it's a light relic that's made to wear easily. no, it's not beaten with chains or anything, but it's still a relic.
