They can keep the Road Worn. I'll wear it out, or in, myself.

Classic Player all the way dude. Great guitars and they don't come artificially aged.

Pre relicing is for poseurs! (just my opinion you're welcome to them if that's your thing)

Classic player of course!
I never understood the road worn or relic’d look. I look at it this way, a rusted 60's American muscle car beaten to death inside and out or one that is in pristine showroom condition? To me the obvious choice is crystal clear. :wink:

Play On!

Personally I'd go with the RW. But you should go with the one that you like best, and only you know which one that is. If you're leaning in one direction, that's the direction to go.

I would definitely have to go with the Classic Player. They are beautiful and play great. Personally, I really like the CP 50s but I like a maple neck. As far as the Road Worn guitars, I just don't get it. It's a lot of money for a guitar that looks like it was beat down.
What's next $50 "road worn" underwear from Hanes with their own "skunk stripe" ?

Now that's funny Rob08! I suppose because it has a certain ring of truth and reality. In my neck of the woods we refer to it as "used BVD's". I just never thought it would ever apply to fine instruments crafted by Fender.

I think it comes plain and you add your own skunk stripe.

:lol:

I am cool with RW, but you'd have to go with a CP (my choice would be the CP 60). The CP guitars are MIMs made to Custom Shop specs. You can argue that the CP line are the best MIMs made. I'd take one of those over a run-of-the-mill RW any day.
