It won’t be an issue for me, I’ve been setting up my guitars for over 30+ years. It’s just disappointing when you purchase a new guitar and the inspection coming from PRS is signed off on despite having minor issues. In regards to zZounds, I spoke to them on the phone before purchasing the SE Swamp Ash, asking if they could at least send me a picture of the guitar’s body showing the wood grain pattern and the Iris Blue stain coloring. Unfortunately, zZounds informed me that they have 4 different locations from which they ship their merchandise and it’s not in their business model to provide actual photos of the specific guitar you’ll be receiving. Sweetwater and Chicago Music Exchange have spoiled me by taking great photos with great lighting, so you really see what you’re getting.
If I really wanted to be total nit-picky, I’d return/exchange every Swamp Ash guitar until I got one which I liked the wood grain and staining. Just to give you an example of what I don’t like, look at the following images, this is exactly what I dislike about the Swamp Ash guitars, when you can clearly see the body is made from three different pieces of swamp ash. And because of this, each piece stains differently also. But I’m of the opinion that a little more time could be spent trying to make the entire surface of the body consistent in color and choose grain patterns that didn’t clash so much.
