    Should I sue Fender?

    oh yes, I should, because they injured me with their guitar(Custom shop '54 strat).

    look at the pic below and notice some screws sticking out of the saddles. they scratched my right hand suddenly when I was playing Sling Shot(my fave Jeff Beck tune). I was playing with the greatest care, but it happened. so, I can say with confidence it was not my fault.

    how do you think of this problem? now my hand is covered with blood...

              Oh c'mon, Cato...grow a fuckin' pair, buddy!
              If you're gonna cry over a little screw scratching you i don't think you need to own any guitars.
              Just go ahead and ship 'em over here to me and let a real man play them, lmmfao.

              I'll take whatever amps ya got lyin' around too.....

                Those long screws might be historically accurate. On the original old Fenders, the saddles were covered by a metal plate. Players removed the plate because it was in the way and they couldn't muffle the strings with the plate on. Since you bought a reproduction of a historic guitar, that could be on purpose. Did the guitar you ordered come with the metal plate?

                I've owned a ton of Strats and never had screws that long on any of them, but I never owned a 50's Strat so I don't know if that's how they were originally. It's either one hell of defect and shitty quality control or it was done on purpose.
                No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!

                            Liar! You didn't hurt your hand while playing guitar!

                            You were just wanking too hard!
