To be fair my multimeter has that cancer warning on it from California. A multimeter!?!?

My new Fender guitar had a warning printed out in the case saying the product contains chemicals known to cause cancer...

Titled: California Proposition 65 Warning

Probably not RoHS compliant :)
It’s definitely RoHS compliant as I’m in the UK and it says it is on the box.

Fluke 87V so not some cheapy banger.

My guess is lead solder, although there are lots of other possibilities.
I believe lead-free solder is required for RoHS compliance.
