Example of defects:
If the product has a defect that you noticed, i.e. on a guitar you experience a “buzzing sound” or other non-expected behaviour.
What you can do to help us verify and validate the defects:
- Send a detailed description of the current problem(s) or defects you think are not in line with the product specifications.
- Provide detailed pictures such as zoom on the defect or a complete area of the defect
- Provide phone recordings when playing the instruments if you can.
- Take as many relevant pictures you think are necessary in order to isolate and explain the current problem.
- The above information will help us assess if this warrants a return/exchange or an adjustment.
