    When carrying it around, prefer a hard case than a gig bag. At least I bump the guitar hell a lot on all the doors and walls when I walk. If you guys are like me, then prefer a hard case. I have a hard case and now I bump the thing with a little safety.

    the other thing is when you lean the guitar against the wall or something. always put lean it so the strings face up and not down so that if the guitar slips it slips and falls on its back and not on the front where the pickups, selector switches, bridges, tremelos etc can get damaged. it doesnt matter if the guitar takes its upper support from the head or on some part of the neck just never leave it face down.

    if brown its rosewood.
    if its black its ebony.
    if its a cream/beige colour then its maple.
