Well, this coincides with my last thread about the set-up.
I don't play guitar much anymore, just to play the occasional gig really. I got a stint doing some local stuff, so that's why I originally got my guitar set-up. I hadn't noticed it until tonight, but I think the guy who did my set-up may have cracked a few parts on my guitar.
I play a Schecter C-1 Classic. I got it about 5-6 years ago, and my guitar straight from the factory; nobody in store played it before I did. One thing I noticed about it was the plastic mounting around my pick-ups were cracked a little bit, all near the screws. After some serious playing, nothing more happened and I decided it was a result of the screws being a little bit too tight.
Fast forward to today, and I see the cracking has gotten worse. On the first picture I linked below, you'll actually see that part of the mounting is now gone, exposing a screw. Should I have this fixed? I'm worried it's more than a cosmetic problem, and if it is I'm going to get this fixed as soon as possible.
Let me link you some pictures:

Let me know what you guys think. I sent an e-mail out to Schecter earlier asking them the same thing. I'm pissed that this happened without my knowing - I really wonder if the tech who did my set-up tightened up the screws and cracked the plastic even more.
