ahem....i already got it lol

 

Yeah :D Typing on my phone was epically slow :D

 

If it doesn't affect the function of the guitar, I'd personally (assuming the shop doesn't sort you out) consider it a mojo mark, and get her played hard to conjour up even more mojo :)

Hey Bro- sorry to hear of your dilemma. I've experienced this too...with guitars and some expensive handguns I own. Only you can decide what you can live with. But quick story along the lines of Billymagnum's experience;

 

Ordered a Fargen Blackbird 20 amp from a distributer years ago. REALLY nice Fender Blackface type and distributers were few and far between. I ordered the amp from a northwestern state and drooled all over myself till the day it came. It came on a Friday afternoon, I opened the box, that had NO visible damage. To my dismay it had a dent / crease, about 3" long on the top!!! Of course, it was the last one the distributor (NOT a big-box store, BTW) had and I e-mailed him right away. He asked for a picture of the damage, which I sent promptly. He said "You know, we did use this "in store" to demo- try to get others interested in the amp / maker", Understandable but why did you not be up front? He told me he'd send a retun label via FedEx or refund me $200.00. No dickering needed on my part, and although I was pissed, the $200.00 took the sting out of it. The amp was AWESOME otherwise. I took the $200. thanked him with a light reprimand about being up front with his customers, and was, in the end, happy.

 

Hope the same for you my friend! Let up know what you do / the outcome, please!

Hello Hoross!

 

That's how it goes...

 

You receive Your new guitar, and being excited You do not see those tiny faults. As days go by, You notice a hairline crack here, or a scratch there.

 

 

yea, I'm sure my wife felt the same about me 6 months into the relationship.
