I just recently purchased my first Fender guitar. I purchased a brand new Classic Player Jaguar HH from eBay. The guitar arrived wrapped in factory packaging, and I found a cosmetic issue upon inspection. There appears to be a strange issue with the paint on the edge of the pick guard. I contacted Fender, and I was told the guitar is not under warranty because I did not purchase it from a dealer. Not really a big deal, and Fender helped me find a factory pick guard online. I purchased it and it should arrive sometime later in the week. Has anyone ever seen a cosmetic issue similar to this? Is this a known issue, or just an isolated problem. Thanks in advance for any insight.

It looks like the pickguard is de-laminating in those areas, likely occurring when the part was cut out or during the beveling process. I don't ever recall seeing that phenomenon before so I'd wager that it's a very isolated incident.
