SHipping guitars from USA

Post by Dullboy »

Hello there,
I'm having a not so nice experience receiving a guitar from the US with Fedex.
What's your experience?
What's your best company to ship guitars from US to the world (I'm in Italy).
Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot!

When I got my Harvester shipped over from Australia, the guy used DHL and swore by them.

It arrived in a few days and absolutely no damage or problem, that would be my first call

As I told before I had a nightmare experience shipping a pedal from Finland to England.
Also receiving stuff from the US now is probably a 2-month minimum story.
Corona has killed of a lot of flights and probably shipping staff.

I’ve shipped 2 60’s Mosrite’s to Australia via FedEx. I did dismantle the beauties (neck boxed separate from body) and it’s taken no more than 8 days from Nebraska to Get there safely.
