FENDER©
GENUINE REPLACEMENT NECK AND BODY
1-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
Fender Musical Instruments Corporation warrants this Fender replacement neck/body to
be free from defects in materials and workmanship for one (1) year from the date of
purchase to the original retail purchaser, subject to the limitations set forth herein. This
warranty is applicable only when the replacement neck/body is purchased from an
authorized Fender dealer and requires the purchaser to supply a copy of the original proof
of purchase (original sales receipt with his/her name indicated as the purchaser, thereon)
at the time service is requested.
Repair service of defects covered by this warranty can be performed only at an
Authorized Fender Service Center, as designated by FMIC. Remedies beyond normal
service repair of any Fender replacement neck/body require both an evaluation of the
defect and a direct recommendation from an Authorized Fender Service Center for
alternative considerations. A network of authorized service centers has been established
for warranty service. Your Authorized Fender Dealer may also be authorized for
warranty service and should be the first point of contact when service of any kind is
required for your Fender replacement neck/body.
All transportation, insurance and freight charges associated with warranty service and
repairs on Fender guitars are the responsibility of the purchaser, as is any service initiated
for the purpose of customizing adjustments beyond factory specifications. All setup and
adjustment after installation is the responsibility of the consumer.
This replacement neck/body should be installed only on the matching model counterpart.
Fender cannot guarantee the fit of the replacement neck/body, if it is not installed on such
matching model counterpart. Some modifications to either the replacement neck/body or
the host neck/body may be necessary, to insure proper fit. Installation and modifications
should be performed only by an experienced, qualified luthier. Improper installation or
modification will void this warranty.
Limitations and Exclusions
The following items are not covered by this warranty:
1. Damage to the replacement neck/body or the host neck/body caused by improper
installation, servicing or modification.
2. Normal wear and tear on any part of the replacement neck/body including worn frets,
string nut, and finish.
3. Setups, adjustments or routine maintenance of any kind.
4. Damage to finishes or cracks, splitting, or warpage of wood due to changes in
temperature or humidity, exposure to or contact with sun, fire, moisture, body salts
and acids of perspiration, guitar straps, guitar stands/hangers made from vinyl,
plastic, rubber or other synthetic materials, any other chemicals or non-Fender©
supplied polishes.
5. Any replacement neck/body purchased from anyone other than an authorized Fender
dealer.
6. All other damage and deterioration due to normal usage, wear and tear,
customization, modification, aging, accidents, neglect, abuse or Acts of Nature.
7. This warranty is rendered void if the finish on the replacement neck/body has been
removed.
8. Chipped, cracked and/or otherwise damaged string nut resulting from improper filing
and/or improper handling.
Should the host neck/body this replacement neck/body is installed on be covered under
an FMIC Limited Lifetime Warranty, such warranty will remain in effect except as it
pertains to the replacement neck/body. This one-year warranty applies to this
replacement neck/body only. Note: Complete instruments constructed entirely of Fender
replacement parts are not covered by the Limited Lifetime Warranty that accompanies a
Fender manufactured instrument.
