A 30 year old guitar sounds better than a guitar from 1994. Why is that? Anyway ... watch this 5 minute video where I show 4 different fret polishing methods if you don't like to relax with ASMR: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HypQfuHmyRM.html
Yup. It's my first guitar. Thrown around, dropped, moved across the country multiple times, spent 10 years tuned to B, etc, etc. It has been through some things, but still plays and sounds great.
