At least you didn't throw it away!
That puts you like miles ahead of many guitarists.
I don't know WHY they do this - but they throw those papers in the trash. They don't keep them. I've bought a lot of used guitars and it's a rarity to find one with the original paperwork - even if they just bought it six damned months ago!
I have no idea why they do this. No idea... That paperwork is potentially important.
I have paperwork for all of my guitars that I've purchased. For some of the used guitars, I've found replica paperwork or just contacted the company to get 'em to send me copies. Guitar/gear manufacturers are sometimes pretty awesome about stuff like that.
I didn't throw out anything, All of the stuff that came with that guitar is almost an heirloom I'll give it to my son when he grows up. He has to be born first but one step at a time. I still have the box, and I'm never throwing it away I'll mount on the wall of my office when tis finished. No matter how much the wife protests.
Oh, speaking of which, do you still have that pick that you said you were gonna keep forever?
You are god damn right I do. I almost lost it the other day but I scoured my current office for it an found it.
