I have spent the last two weeks shopping for a Johnny Marr and I am noting a consistent pattern of issues with nicks and scars. The one and only brand new JM at Canada's Long & Mcquade stores (Saskatoon) is even chipped!

I have noted that many on eBay have this same issue. Now....I am sure that the QC people at Fender are aware of this by now. I would really like to know if and when this problem will be addressed by Fender?

This is the one and only reason I am hesitating for purchasing this fabulous upgraded Jagg!

The current American Vintage models also have very thin finishes and tend to get chipped easily. It's kind of the price you pay for the thin finishes that will easily "relic" with playing.

Hi,
I purchased a Johnny Marr Jag as a Christmas present for myself. I'm having the same issue with the paint chipping off. I wrote to Fender customer service and they suggested either spraying clear coat to stop the chipping or have it refinished. This isn't what I was expecting at all when I ordered this guitar. It plays well and sounds gorgeous but this is really annoying.
