yes, it gets that patina over time and dings and scratches just add character, but you can always "reset" and get it back to shiny if you want. (I usually just take a little ketchup and a cloth and wipe it and it will look almost like new)
orange is my fave aux color. all my TS10 have orange aux. I had red but red is dimmer, so I sold it. go for it :)
Patina is dope, plus I agree, scratches and dings on EDC gear do add character. Non-hobbyists probably won't understand (especially collectors who just keep stuff in boxes). Thanks for the ketchup tip. Great to know we can make it "mainstream nice" again.
Alright, orange aux it is! My silver TS10 has red, BTW. Thanks zzap!
