Does it hurt you when you scratch, bruise or dent it?

I fell on my Sigma twelve string, stone cold sober, one morning walkng up and tripping over a pothole along the road. My guitar was only in a soft case. I cracked three ribs. It was days before I could bring myself to open the case and take a look at what I thought would be devastating damage. Yet the guitar was completely unharmed! Phew.

I bought a hard case for it, the following week.

I once owned one of these ugly suckers:

45 minutes into owning it, the strap button came out and chipped off the top quarter of the headstock. :(

That is an ugly sucker! The chip probably improved its looks.
