All of our MARTIN D-16RGT guitar comes with a 1 year local warranty
We set-up all our acoustic guitars before they leave our store.
This basic but professional service covers several check points including string tuning, polish & clean, testing of electronics, joint checks and adjusting the instrument neck to an optimum distance between fretboard and string.
Our set-up warranty will cover the following areas up to a year from the date of purchase:
1. Any buzzing issues up to the 12th fret, which is where guitar action is generally measured.
2. Addressing and resetting any potential bridge uplift issues within reasonable tolerance.
3. Repair and/or replacement of any electronics arising from any manufacturing defect.
Do note that guitars are made of wood and wood is susceptible to changes in temperature and humidity. These factors may limit adjustment or reconditioning work. We recommend that you set-up your guitar annually to protect your investment.
