I got my MIM 2011 Telecaster during X-mas. A few weeks ago I noticed a blemish on my fretboard. Keep in mind I am a beginner and I don't shred on the guitar (at least not yet)

It looks like when they sprayed the gloss or shelaque on the fretboard in the factory, perhaps it did not settle evenly. In two places there seems to be thin areas.

Although my guitar plays well. I am thinking to let this slide. However, this is still a new guitar to me. Should I exchange this or keep it?

Personally I would exchange it, you paid for a good finish and you should have it.

Most Music stores have a 30 day return/exchange policy. I don't think that would be an option since you have had it since December. If your really not happy with it I would sell it privately on Ebay or Craigslist. You may get $300 for it. If you try to sell it to the stores your lucky if they give you $200 for it.
