I usually buy my guitars from the local store but I wanted the butterscotch blonde color, which I couldn’t find anywhere. So I bought a brand new American P-Bass off eBay, from a music store. Came shipped new in the case and all the goodies. I’ve noticed on the bridge, there is a piece of chrome that looks like it’s chipping, pretty small but noticeable. I’m not familiar with guitar warranties because everything I play is old but is this any type of warranty issue?

Was the eBay seller an Authorized Fender Dealer?

Contact the dealer first, give them a chance to make it right. If the dealer can not help you contact the nearest service center by checking this link: http://www.fender.com/support/service_centers/

I've heard that Fender's dealer restrictions are being tightened and they can no longer sell new warrantied instruments on eBay. If what I've heard is true then this change is effective almost immediately and the new instruments currently listed on eBay will be the last new ones.

For all warranty work, the dealer is who I always turn to first.
