Hey all, I'm not too familiar with guitar repairs etc so looking for any opinions. I purchased an SE McCarty 594 a few weeks ago and have had a chance to play it for a a bit. I've noticed the following issues....
- fret ends are pretty rough and not smooth
- G string fret buzz
- the volume on the bridge pickup is basically zero. So when I play the neck pickup its fine and switch to the bridge one there is no volume and I have to crank my amp to get a bit of volume out of that pickup
- the volume knob for the bridge pickup rubs on the body of the guitar
- the input jack for the cable isn't a great fit and a bit of movement from the cable and the guitar will "cut out"
Do these seem like minor issues or something more concerning? I have two weeks to return the guitar for full refund or my local shop will also fix the guitar under their policy if I want to keep it.
Any recommendations as I'm not sure how "big" these fixes are?
Thx!
