Guild Acoustic guitar Owner's Manual & Warranty page 20

Defective components that qualify for coverage
under this warranty will be repaired or replaced (at
Fender's discretion) without charge. Remedies
beyond normal service repair of any Guild instrument
require both an evaluation and confirmation of the
defect and a direct recommendation to Fender from
an Authorized Fender Service Center for alternative
considerations.
All transportation, insurance and freight charges
associated with warranty service and repairs on Guild
instruments 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 warranty.
Limitations and exclusions
The following items are not covered by this warranty:
. Fret wear, saddle wear, nut wear, strings and
batteries.
2. Setups, adjustments or routine maintenance of
any kind.
3. Damage to finishes or cracks, splitting, or
warping of wood due to changes in temperature
or humidity, exposure to or contact with sun,
fire, moisture, perspiration, body salts and acids,
guitar straps, guitar stands/hangers made from
vinyl, plastic, rubber or other synthetic materials,
any other chemicals or non-Fender-approved
polishes.
