Re: MJT Quality Issues?
Yeah, I'm not a super picky person, but this is too much money for something so flawed.
I would not give them opportunity to fix it, personally, I would just return it for refund.

Re: MJT Quality Issues?
I wonder how it is for people getting their botched/returned stuff off Reverb and Ebay.

They wouldnt give me a refund, would only offer to redo it for me. I gave up after the second body they sent also had paint lifting.

I guess since they take so long, filing a cc claim is out of the question?

Thanks for posting this. I had not realized their quality has gone downhill. I think I will look for another place to finish a neck.

Shoddy as fuck. What a joke. That is an embarrassing collection of junk work and lack of attention to detail.

Re: MJT Quality Issues?
Well, this has turned into quite the headache quickly. I reached out to MJT with all of the details in the forum, here was their reply:

I message them back after a week:Hello Ryan!!!!
Oh no!!! I am so sorry to hear that!!
We will open a UPS Claim for your project immediately. Please make sure to keep all packaging and materials and items together for UPS to pickup and inspect for the claim. We will keep you updated on that as they communicate with us!
And absolutely any parts that are incorrect or are missing we will replace no problem at all!!!!
If you would do one more check and see if there are any other parts missing just so that I can make sure we don’t miss anything else for you and just make a list that would be great!!!
Thanks so much and we will do whatever we can to make sure you’ve got a project that you LOVE Ryan!

Their reply:Hey Payton, have you heard anything back from UPS? It's been a week so I'm just checking in. I would really like to see all of the problems sent in the email above addressed including the finishing issues. I'm not seeing any other parts missing but it would probably be helpful to check on your end once it gets returned and make sure all of the parts included in the full kit are there. I have everything packed up and ready to go back.

Maybe it is just me but I feel like they are walking around the finishing issues by bringing up the missing parts rather than addressing the inconsistent finish. Oddly enough I get a email from UPS the day after I reached back out to MJT:MJT Guitar - Payton
Hello Ryan!!!!
We have submitted your Claim with UPS and they should be arriving to retrieve the package anytime now! We have not been updated by them yet but I will check in on that for you right now. Once we receive the package, we will inspect everything and absolutely we will make sure the correct parts for your order are included in the Shipment back!!
Thanks so much for your patience and understanding during this!

I wait around my house Wednesday from 5:15-8:15 and nobody shows up. I reach out to UPS help support while waiting around 8pm and here is the conversation, they tell me that the return to shipper request was made today. Either MJT was lying to me and forgot to file the report for a week or someone on UPS side just now got around to it:Your delivery has been rescheduled.

I sit at home Thursday between 5:15-8:15 and nobody shows. Today I call UPS and they tell me that somebody picked up the package Wednesday (which never happened, it is still sitting in my living room) and now they will have to file a new package pickup return all over again.Francis T (8/3/2022, 8:03:06 PM): Hi, My name is Francis. I am reviewing your information and I will be with you in a moment.
Me (8/3/2022, 8:03:13 PM): Thank you!
Francis T (8/3/2022, 8:04:28 PM): Hello May I know the details of your concern?
Me (8/3/2022, 8:05:10 PM): Hey! So I have a package that came damaged and now there is a return open for it. I got an email saying my package would be picked up between 5:15-8:15 and was wondering if you could check the status and see where the driver is?
Me (8/3/2022, 8:05:28 PM): I'm over an hour late for a meeting so really need to know if they are going to show up today or not.
Me (8/3/2022, 8:05:36 PM): Tracking # is *******************
Francis T (8/3/2022, 8:07:05 PM): The scheduled return for this is actually for tomorrow since the return to shipper request was made today.
Me (8/3/2022, 8:07:40 PM): Damn, not sure why I got the email but good to know.
Me (8/3/2022, 8:07:43 PM): Thank you for the heads up!
Me (8/3/2022, 8:07:48 PM): Rescheduled Delivery Wednesday 08/03/2022 5:15 PM - 8:15 PM
Me (8/3/2022, 8:07:59 PM): This is copied straight from it so I'm not sure what happened.

I hope you eventually get the situation resolved.

Re: MJT Quality Issues?
That is totally strange. Payton is normally the guy I work with for my stuff. Him and Matt just got my custom Jag-Stang and they are going to silver burst it for me. MJT has always been good to me. Sorry your order is going so weird. I don't think Matt is retired. He has emailed me two or three times in this past week.

Re: MJT Quality Issues?
Ah ok. I thought it was Matt and Jenny, not Mark. My bad. For what it's worth, this burst just came in this past month and I love how it turned out. Again though, I went relic not closet clean.YALCaster wrote: ↑Fri Aug 05, 2022 6:24 pmMatt is still there, his father, Mark is retired.HNB wrote: ↑Fri Aug 05, 2022 4:42 pmThat is totally strange.

Re: MJT Quality Issues?
I’ve had nothing but luck with them, but I’ve also made friends with the staff and visited them in person quiet a few times. I haven’t ordered from them in about a year, so I can’t speak on any recent qualities or lack there of
