Anyway, from what I've been told, some people just don't work well with scratched lacquer. I guess the lacquer does not fill in the actual scratches all the way (if it did it wouldn't look as good) so sweat can get under it easily and distort it.

But that's only what I've been told, no guarantees.

Matt,

That is not true. The lacquer can be applied thicker and will hold better to the scratched surface. A polished surface is much harder to lacquer. I think he got a bad lacquer job. He posted this on the TH too. I'll say what I said before, exchange the horn. Every manufacturer has a horn come out once-in-a-while that is bad. It won't cost Music 123 anything, it is under warranty. They should exchange it without hesitation. That is what I would do.
