As yet another guitar player, and former hi-end hi-fi manufacturer employee, I'd have to agree that 'mechanical' items DO change with time. Usually this is in a good way (guitars, speakers, turntables) We used to run amplifiers 'flat-out' into a dummy load for around 72 hours before shipping them, because as mentioned above anything that is likely to go 'bang' will do so in that period. As to any 'burn-in' period for a purely electronic device 'improving' the sound - nonsense (IMHO)
