I'm sure if you do some googling around you can find out how to make stuff look old.  There's a trend for old look furniture too and before that trend there were those who made fake "antiques".  Try searching for "distressing" and maybe add "diy" and/or "furniture".  You'll find lots of info that will help with the wood parts.<br><br>Personally, I'll just play the thing and let it get worn that way though I do try to avoid banging it.]]></content:encoded>
