Re: Is Originality Important?
If I recall correctly, when Thile replaced the fingerboard on his first Loar, he kept the original so if needed, it could be resold as original (or more original than modified). Collectors and players are two different breeds of instrument acquirers.You can maximize your asking price by being more original. That doesn't mean someone will want to play it.

There are two things to aim at in life: first, to get what you want; and, after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second. Logan Pearsall Smith, 1865 - 1946
