Hey,

I bought a used Washburn jazz guitar a little while back. There's some chipping on either side of the neck near the fretboard. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if it is merely cosmetic or an indication of something more serious? Any advice would be of great help.

Thanks!

Almost looks likes someone was playing with some serious jewelry on. I don't think, haven't heard of this being endemic to the OS models (called a Washburn dist. friend to ask)

I have something very similar (i think I can't quite decide it's certainly not as bad) on my washburn. I just ignore it it was a pretty cheap guitar!

It's hard to see from the photos, but provided the fretboard is still good and level it looks like just a cosmetic issue, yeah!

Depending on the finish it could be a reasonably simple repair job for you local friendly tech, if it's bothering you. If not, just play away :D

Isn't the point of projectguitar to have a go at repairs and builds yourself?

Not always. It's also about getting advice from builders and repairers.
