    How Do You Treat Your Les Pauls?

    The only time I baby my guitars is during transit. Just as long as I dont break them. Otherwise, I don't really give much thoughts on wear and tear. I play with my guitars as often as time permits. That is what they're meant for.

    Anyone Ever Get Bored with Your Historic Color

    I learnt this from a Koi seller... to make red look good in photos, contrast it against blue. I do wish the reds would fade a bit. It is, albeit slowly in indirect sunlight.
