I traded my month old TA Cobra for his mint 2014 Bulldog, but his Bulldog showed up with a small neck pocket crack. When the guitar arrived the shipping box was a little beat up but I've seen worse from UPS. I opened the case and the bridge pickup was touching the strings on the treble side (I thought that was a little odd but didn't put 2+2 together at that point). I looked over the guitar front and back, headstock etc and it appeared to be ok. So I took the guitar home and set it in the closet over the weekend. A buddy of mine who has 3 Bulldogs wanted to see it so on Monday came over and checked it out and noticed the neck pocket crack. At first we thought maybe it was finish crack only but looking closer you could see the crack under the finish. I informed Bill and filed the claim directly with UPS. Well after a couple weeks he got them to pay the claim for the guitar - not sure how much the value tanked as the guitar was gorgeous - and knowing how things like this can affect the resale of a guitar that's no longer made, but Bill got everything taken care of. Thanks again Bill for getting UPS to pay up.
