Maybe it's an age thing? When I was younger I couldn't understand why folks would want a worn out looking Fender or anything for that matter.
I eventually bought a black '77 (think it was a '77) Precision bass and really loved it even though it wasn't that worn out looking. I then ended up with a '76 Jazz and a P- Precision (which was awful). All sold now, but the Jazz & Precision I'd have back tomorrow if I could...just for that been there done that feeling they give you when you play them. Maybe the character of old basses like that means more the older you get?
The roadworn's...well...what can I say...fake, simple as that.
