Right, but most genuine high-end techs are paid in piece work as subcontractors where the store surely doesn't pay them an hourly wage. See, anyone who is really worth their stuff as a tech is usually not on the store's payroll. So, the money would have to come directly out of the store's pocket to maintain these instruments and this is how stuff falls into disrepair because many owners are not going to pay a tech per guitar to do the entire shop's inventory even if it is once every two weeks. At best, if they know a customer is very serious about a purchase, they may have the tech tweak the subject of interest guitar. Lastly, and this wouldn't really fly to any extent either, the tech and/or shop owner would have to constantly be filling out paperwork after the fact per instrument in an attempt to back charge Fender for warranty work which of course, Fender may or may not approve. Now if the owner happens to be a competent tech or outright hires one, that's a different story but these situations are becoming more and more scarce these days. YMMV.
