yes gloss is more durable & hardwaring but it shows all the dents & scratches that guitars pick up & then it looks shit, where as a fuck up satin guitar looks more authentic when battered.

: I was wondering what the differences b/w a satin finish and a gloss finish, besides the look. I figure the gloss is more durable, but is the satin really that bad? Is there any difference in sound? thanks.
