I remember back in the day when I was buying tweed amps and some Blackface stuff, that many of them had cigarette burns on them. I'll never forget a friend owned a tweed Bassman that must have had over 100 burns strategically placed around the top of the amp. I never bought any of those amps and ended up with cleaner examples, but they were plentyful. Looking at tweeds out there now, many are raggy, but lack the burns? What gives?
Does anyone here own a burnt tweed or were they all retweeded? I tend to think they add character to the soul of the amp? Or the headstock for that matter! I remember openning the guitar case and they smelled just like the bars they played! Just a random thought and I'd thow it out here! Peace!:dude:
