I would feel so bad about putting pickguard holes into that body. This. Why on earth wouldn't you rear route that?

CL is full of friggin flakes and morons.

That was $71 in my box and with my packing. I went to Fedex first and it was $76.00 in my box. Interestingly, I asked Fedex how much to pack and ship and they responded they will not pack stringed instruments. In so many worrds, "You have to ship a guitar at your risk, not ours." You have to have a commercial account with a high discount to ship cheaply anymore. Why do they offer insurance then? Let's be real, most of the cost in shipping an item is in the packing material,box, and insurance. I shipped a Mesa DR head to south Texas(from NJ) for $40. No insurance, no sig. required. It also depends on who you're dealing with obviously.

So now it just gets worse. I sold that Michael Dolsey thinline Tele for $399 and felt pretty good about it. I listed shipping a flat rate $45. Some guy from CA buys it and shipping for a 14# square guitar box was $67, including my 10% discount. Jeezus. Get the guitar boxes from GC recycling and FedEx it for about $30.
