Used blade vs new blade

Hi everyone

I would be very grateful if someoane could advise me related to choosing a blade and my exact dilema is wether a blade looses its qualities with time.

Let's say: I have in my hands two blades called Michael Maze, a new one and an 8 years old one (very well mantained, with good feel tried by an experienced player and apparently no faults).

Question: wich one I choose, if money doesn't matter in making this choice and why?

Congratulations for the great job you do guys and I look forward to hear from you.

Thank you very much

Hi Cristian,

A blade does change its characteristics slightly over time.  The wood can get a little softer but it is very marginal.

So if you have the choice and money is no object choose the new one because it is very marginally better.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!
