Hmm If they put it in a hardcase (flight case) and pad the interior for guitar to be in place I don't see much of a problem shipping it that way. Though you never know how seller will pack it, it may be best to use well known seller or one you had good experience with.

Yes, I presume a flight case would be a very sturdy and solid shipping option. The bad side, it will make the shipping raise a bit because of the weight. Still, by buying high end I think there still is a bit to "save". If buying locally, my options are some Ibanezes and Takamines which retails at 700-1200 $, so those are not totally out of the question neither Hmmm I don't know, maybe you should look up those locally. If its not that drastic price difference its worth being able to try the guitar that you want to buy... -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

My guitars travelled around the world in flight cases many many times, and I never had a problem, I would notcheck them in without such a case though. And option would be trying to take them as hand luggage, but that depends on the flight company.
