TAPCO LIMITED WARRANTY

A.

  LOUD Technologies Inc. warrants all materials, 

workmanship and proper operation of this TAPCO 
product for a period of 

one year

 from the original 

date of purchase. If any defects are found in the 
materials or workmanship, or if the product fails to 
function properly during the applicable warranty 
period, LOUD Technologies, at its option, will repair 
or replace the product. This warranty applies only 
to equipment sold and delivered within the U.S. by 
LOUD Technologies or its authorized dealers.

B.

  Failure to register online or return the product 

registration card will not void the one-year warranty.

C.

  Service and repairs of TAPCO products are to 

be performed only at the factory, or a factory-
authorized service center. Unauthorized service, 
repairs, or modification will void this warranty.

D.

  To obtain factory service, please follow the 

instructions found on page 26.

E.

  LOUD Technologies Inc. and Authorized TAPCO 

Service Centers reserve the right to inspect any 
products that may be the subject of any warranty 
claims before repair or replacement is carried 
out. LOUD Technologies and Authorized TAPCO 
Service Centers may, at their option, require 
proof of the original date of purchase in the form 
of a dated copy of the original dealer’s invoice 
or sales receipt. Final determination of warranty 
coverage lies solely with LOUD Technologies Inc. or 
its Authorized Service Centers.

F.

  TAPCO products returned to LOUD Technologies 

and deemed eligible for repair or replacement 
under the terms of this warranty will be repaired 
or replaced within thirty days of receipt by LOUD 
Technologies at our rainforest factory complex. 
LOUD Technologies may use refurbished parts for 
repair or replacement of any products. Products 
returned to LOUD Technologies that do not meet 
the terms of this Warranty will be repaired and 
returned C.O.D. with billing for labor, materials, 
return freight, and insurance. Products repaired 
under warranty at the factory will be returned 
freight prepaid by LOUD Technologies to any 
location within the boundaries of the USA.

G.

  LOUD Technologies warrants all repairs performed 

for 90 days or for the remainder of the warranty 
period. This warranty does not extend to damage 
resulting from improper installation, misuse, neglect 
or abuse, or to exterior appearance. This warranty 
is recognized only if the inspection seals and serial 
number on the unit have not been defaced or 
removed.

H.

  LOUD Technologies assumes no responsibility for 

the quality or timeliness of repairs performed by 
TAPCO Authorized Service Centers.

I.

  This warranty is extended to the original purchaser 

and to anyone who may subsequently purchase 
this product within the applicable warranty period.

liability on behalf of LOUD Technologies or to make 
any warranty for LOUD Technologies.
