New 594 finish questions.

[Jaysop]

Just got a brand new 594 in today. First core guitar. I own a CE24 also.

I did some research about the nitro finish and understand it has some specific care needs.

Inspecting this guitar under some bright lights I found some things that seem to be concerning. They're somewhat hard to see, I guess I'm more concerned that these will be getting worse in the long run?

For the cost i was expecting "perfect" but im not heart broken.

Is there a "fix" for this?

I wish there was such a thing as perfect…………….

Honestly, that looks like the guitar was bumped or scraped at the dealer's shop. I've never seen that on one straight from the factory.

If it's a new guitar under warranty, PRS will fix it.

Completely agree!

What's weird about the one down by the volume and tone knobs is that it's not indented, it's actually somewhat like a bubble with an identical "shadow" above and to the right of it.

Really hard to get a picture of that.

This. ^^^^^^ Go back to your dealer and have them work with their PRS rep to get it sorted.

Plus we're from Detroit, so we know stuff.

"Like what do you know?"

"Like, um...well, we know about crappy weather, for starters! And really bad professional football teams, we can give you an earful on that."

Alright then

So anyway, I contacted PRS. Sent them some pics. I'll hear something back next week I imagine.

Looks like it saw some shop wear from the dealer….
