I recently posted this guitar in the Import Charvel section. Here's a post of mine in that thread that explains my dilema. My question is simple. Has the painter done something wrong where I would be in the right to return the body for it to be corrected? Thanks in advance.
Since you mentioned it. I took it out of the case and looked it over. I had put it up after I put it together because the input jack needs resoldered, and metaljunkie is going to fix it for me. Now that I've looked at it closer, the clear coat job doesn't appear to have hardened properly to me. I initally saw a two small pen tip sized imperfections in the clear coat that could only be seen holding the body up close.
Three things I've just noticed is that the clear coat/paint has bulged up where I tightened the pick-up ring down. Another thing I noticed, is that I always put a spare trem cavity cover under my floyds so I don't scratch the finish when I put the bridge in and the springs on it. There is a small indention about a half an inch long where the trem spring cover dug into the finish right at the upper and lower trem posts. Also, when I took the neck plate off the finish was mashed up at each bolt area of the neck plate. Could this be because it hasn't cured properly?
