Yes some Traditions and some CVA's but CVA has shown a major improvement in the last few years. Never have I seen a TC like that though I have fixed several for club member that had a minor problem that would make them appear that way. I would suggest you take time to call the technicians at TC if its a TC and if you can not get enough help to straiten it out on the phone then send it back it has a life time warranty if its a TC and even CVA will attempt to help you some times.
