Hankin tässä muutama viikko sitten fenderin jazz bassin. Sen mukana tuli ohjekirja, jonka mukaan soittimella on limited lifetime warranty. Siinä oli mainittu, että seuraavissa tapauksissa takuu ei ole voimassa:

Alkoi vain ihmetyttämään, että mitäs tämä takuu sitten korvaa? Jos olen oikein ymmärtänyt, niin tämä takuu koskee Amerikkaa ja Suomessa on eri menettelyt takuun suhteen, mutta kuitenkin..
