My Butterscotch blonde MIA Tele, tobacco burst Epi LP standard, and sonic blue MIM stratocaster.

Brand new, right off the rack at GC. Manufacturing date was 3 months prior.
This is anecdotal, but most of the MIM strats and teles I saw there had pretty bad fret sprout. The Squiers didn’t. I was thinking it must have been due to the humidity/temperature difference between the manufacturing location and New England in winter.
