Op… the amount of outrage you’ve caused these people is hilarious. I personally believe how one treats their guitar is their own business. Also, something tells me you could easily get that thing cleaned.

I paid $300 for a decent acoustic about 14 years ago. Cleaned the fretboard a few times, never went full ham on it. I like to play a few hours a week. Its never kept in a case, I don’t wax/oil it, and I don’t have the stupid humidifier thing the guitar tech tried to sell me. It should last me the rest of my life (or implode tomorrow by these peoples standards). Either way, it was $300 and has made it this far.

Get over it guys/gals, it’s not your guitar. Treat yours how you want… standing by for the “well actually….” Folks

Haha a lot of people do seem to think my guitar is FUBAR or at least a danger to anyone's health and literally unplayable.

I got this guitar when I was a teenager (I'm 33 now) and it has served me well. It's not pristine in any way, but it's a good guitar.

It's not actually caked in grime anyway, it just looks more filthy than it actually is. 🤷‍♀️ .
