Here's an anecdote which ties these together:
Some years ago I bought a really nice Collings acoustic guitar. The second I brought it home, the very first thing I did was I showed it to my wife. She opened the case and picked the guitar up out of it, immediately slamming the headstock on our living room coffee table and dinging it (the headstock).
This headstock was not made of "pull-up" rosewood, and the ding did not rub out.
On the bright side, having the guitar pre-dinged allowed me to worry about it a lot less.
