EVH® ELECTRIC GUITARS AND BASSES 2-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY (2022)

Fender warrants this EVH brand electric guitar or bass to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for two (2) years from the date of original purchase, subject to the limitations set forth herein (“Limited Warranty”). This Limited Warranty applies only to the original retail purchaser when this instrument is purchased from an Authorized EVH Dealer and is subject to the limitations set forth herein. IMPORTANT: PLEASE RETAIN YOUR ORIGINAL SALES

RECEIPT, AS IT IS YOUR PROOF OF PURCHASE VALIDATING THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.

FMIC has established a network of independent Authorized EVH Service Centers for warranty service. The EVH Dealer from whom you purchased your electric guitar or bass may also be authorized for warranty service and should be the first point of contact when service of any kind is required for your EVH electric guitar or bass. To receive warranty service, return the complete instrument to an Authorized EVH Service Center, with your sales receipt as proof of purchase, during the applicable Limited Warranty period. To the extent feasible, defective components that qualify for coverage under this Limited Warranty will be repaired or replaced (at Fender's discretion) without charge. If the qualified component is not repaired, Fender may, at its sole discretion, either replace with a comparable product or refund the purchase price. Remedies beyond normal service repair of any EVH instrument require both an evaluation and confirmation of the defect and a direct recommendation to Fender from an Authorized EVH Service Center for alternative considerations.

All transportation, insurance and freight charges associated with warranty service and repairs on EVH electric guitars or basses are the responsibility of the purchaser, as is any service initiated for the purpose of customizing setups or adjustments beyond factory specifications. Initial standard setup and adjustment of the instrument and its components at the time of purchase are considered normal Dealer product preparation and are not covered by this Limited Warranty.

Limitations and Exclusions

The following items are not covered by this Limited Warranty.

  1. Fret wear, saddle wear, nut wear, strings and batteries.
  2. Checking, shrinking, sinking, discoloration and ware of lacquer finishes.
  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-EVHapproved polishes.
  5. Damage, corrosion or rusting of any hardware components caused by humidity, salty air, or exposure to the moisture, body salts and acids of perspiration.
  6. Any damage to an instrument resulting from customization or modification.
  7. Normal wear and tear on any part of the instrument, case or gig bag including jacks, controls, switches, plated surfaces, tuning machines, pickguards, zippers, clasps, handles, latches, case hardware etc.
  8. All other damage and deterioration due to normal usage, wear and tear, aging, accidents, neglect, abuse, or Acts of Nature.
  9. Any instrument, whose serial number is missing, altered or tampered with in any fashion.
  10. Any instrument purchased from anyone other than an Authorized EVH Dealer.
  11. Instruments that have been serviced by unauthorized persons (any person other than a EVH Certified Technician at an Authorized EVH Service Center).
