The light spots on the string sides of the tuning pegs are lighter, the finish is lifting. I have a bunch of better pics here.

going the call them on the 4th, no point shipping something before new years, just takes longer. Ideally I ship it on a monday it should get the least time away from me.

went to send it in, the whores at UPS want 220$!! . They need to use 2 boxes not one as it is an odd shape, and want 50$ for them.. They have to package it for it to be insured, insurance is 30$. Get this, to get it to california, they want 140$ more.. This needs to wait for now, and is freaking ridiculous.

Welcome to oversized..........DIN weight...................and insured parcel.


I deal with that crap all the time. We pay $30.00 for any outbound box larger than a shoe box....................even if it's a pound. Gotta love UPS. :roll:

It would probably be cheaper to buy an airline ticket and take it there yourself. plus its warm there. Maybe you need a vacation?
Happy 2015!
