In our opinion, nothing is more beautiful than a vintage guitar that has been heavily played and has that "dragged behind a truck and through a fire" appearance. The increasing expense of purchasing a vintage instrument has made it impractical to take the risk of damaging it on the road, or worse yet, having it stolen.
The idea behind relicing a guitar is to artificially replicate the natural wear that occurs over the many years that the instrument has been played. This procedure involves aging the hardware, and creating authentic looking wear marks on the neck and body of the guitar.
Degrees of Relicing
Light - Guitar obviously played out some, but not abused. Light dings and finish wear only.
Medium - Guitar has more dings, light fretboard wear, light pickguard wear,light hardware aging, cigarette burn, etc.
Heavy - Dragged behind a truck and thru a fire.... enough said.
