Went to install my new 57/62z and the bases have not been tapped for screws...........So I take them back to the House of Guitars and they say "Wow....Never seen that before"...I then ask if they can have their luthier look at it...."Nope...not here today".....I stand around for a few more minutes..They then say...."You all set".....Uuuummm no....They say come back tomorrow.......Now my Strat will sit a little longer......
So here is the deal......
Drive back to the HOG in another blizzard like I did today......Then have someone tap the holes................
Or........
Send a nifty email to Fender asking to have them fixed and tested and me given the results.........And just maybe they might throw something in.....Hhhmmmmmmmmmmm
