Well, polyurethane really is a superior material to nitro. Nitro yellows, cracks and crazes over time. Now, we think that's cool now because it shows the guitar has been through some use. From a purely protective standpoint though, poly is better.

Some people say nitro breathes better, I've never been able to hear a difference between a nitro finished and a poly finished guitar. I think a lot of that stuff is placebo effect.
