Dr. Phil on relic'ed guitars

Well, since relic’ing has been up on this blog before, and since Wilhelm being a big fan of guitars and Dr. Phil (a “dialogue-driven talk show with an academic edge” as he calls it), I thought I should post Dr. Phil’s view on relic’ing of guitars:




(dang, what happened to that sycophantic Yes-man I once was?)

    ..he calls it that?

    'cause I call it a good mix of a 40-minute book infomercial and an endless parade of losers

    It sounded like him?

    Then I don't understand why you're such a big fan of him.

  3. ...which adds up with my confusion as to how I somehow got mixed into being perceived as a Dr. Phil fan

    I needed a reason to post the clip on this blog? It could have been worse; imagine if Paris Hilton had said something about guitars...

  6. That being said, it's not like dude's not right about the Relic series.

    If I wanted to pay full price for a f*cked-up guitar, I'd go to that Other guitar shop in Trondheim

    I agree. And even worse; sometimes, like with the National Replicon, a "relic'ed" reissue of the famous National Style O, retails for more then the real thing in similar condition. I just don't get it. I just don't see the point of damage a guitar, unless it's improve playability or sound.

    ...so maybe messing these guitars up improves their overall quality?

    You mean that I should try out that theory on my guitars? And that you would be willing to help me out for just a small fee?

  11. ...except for on the Takamine, I'd help out pro bono
