I was hoping someone might have some advice or insight for me, dealing with a guitar that I am not happy with.
I purchased this guitar new a few months ago, I loved the pickups in it. It had something odd about it to begin with but i couldn't put my finger on it. When I changed the strings on it the trem was massively out of adjustment. Turns out it was setup for a much thinner gauge or lower tension strings than I normally use on my electrics. Took it back to where I bought it and asked them if they could do a setup on the trem. In the process they realized that they frets where not properly leveled on a good percentage of the guitar....... (getting unhappy at this point since it wasn't a a cheap guitar).
They Do the trem work and level the frets. I get it back the frets are level but uncrowned. The trem is setup wrong, and the bindings on the fret board are marred.
They claim they crowned the frets but its obvious they didn't cause you can see how flat they are from the leveling. They are pretty much flat across the entire fret at this point.
I am trying not to be a dick about it at this point. But the thought of another 3 weeks without the guitar and possibly another headache for something that shouldn't of been an issue in the first place is kinda getting on my nerves.
Should I just get rid of it, or see it through getting things right?
Tips, insight? Words of wisdom? Similar experiences and knowledge gained? Anything would be greatly appreciated, its just become a nasty piece bit of drama that i don't want to blow out of proportion but adding my own annoyance to the mix if possible.
Thanks in advance.
