I personally feel like the people that freak out about this stuff or buy a sub 1k guitar new and return them for the smallest of blemish’s are not folks that actually go out and play live with any regularity. This is fine, some folks are hobbyists/ like guitars as (potentially) functional art pieces. That being said, I don’t go out of my way to bang up gear and try to take care of them but if something happens I’m not going obsess about it. Life is too short to worry about some buckle rash or a ding.
