There's a hole in the box...says the UPS guy...

D-EJ915 · 07-10-2006, 07:18 PM

So I'm upstairs in my room and my dad comes up and opens my door "Jeff, your guitar is here and the guy wants to make sure it's not damaged because it's pretty beat up."

So here I am going "oh great" and I imagine a box where all the sides are squished in, etc. and I go out the door and there's this freaking pristine box there. There's this TINY holy where somebody must've poked it to grab it easier or something...seriously overreacting but whatever. That UPS guy was cool \m/

So anyway...I empty out all the peanuts into 3 bags and a box...and take it upstairs..

Slide the box back out (I put it back inside to carry upstairs)...

Box is open...I guess they inspect it...

O RLY?

Well after the administering of my blade to the tape...I got a huge trash bag...woohoo

Okay...Maybe not just a trash bag...

Stuff that was in the box:

Aaaand...my guitars...

Sorry for the crap-ass picstory but w/e it's hot as hell in my room...and now I have a B-standard, drop-A and drop-C tuned guitar. \m/

Wow that's nice of them! I've seen them throw the box causing the holes and run! Nice weapons!

Nice. Congrats, man.

The UPS driver wanted to inspect my acoustic because it looked beat up.

Consider yourself lucky

Sweet dude!

You bought this when clearly there is a 7string model available, exactly like it? ;p

NDG · 07-10-2006, 08:35 PM

I hope that one is more balanced than the 7.

I bet it has more clarity too. Well, maybe with better pickups.

P.S. Congrats.

Which was also 300 dollars more...I could've gotten 2 VB200s for that price.

No, I'd think that it'd be more horribly balanced than the 7-string version but whatever, that's easy to fix.

I think I might get some passives for this biotch.
