They all passed the QC stage.. if there is a QC stage that is.
The badly painted head was posted because the owner has an issue with it.. all replies in the US are because everyone has an issue with it. I don't want to own this machine, but I have an issue with it.
Only people who don't have an issue with it are Stern because they gladly took someones money and gave that POS in exchange and Cavey who as always cannot bear to think that Stern really F**ed up.
Doesn't matter if it was painted in China, USA or outer Mongolia.. fact is Stern passed it and sold it on.
Its a shocker and for a while there, I thought Stern had lifted their game.
Sterns quality is as crap as its always been and the care factor is ZERO... 10 grand is a lot of wedge and for that to be a gamble on the finish just sucks big time. I hope all those in this machine get perfect games.. but yeh.. you just don't know do you till you open the box.
Shouldn't be that way...
