Can anyone

Can anyone tell me what size box they use to ship their guitars in when they sell them? Also, where did you get them?

36”x10”x10” is a great size:

Thanks a lot Brian

Also Jon, if you can get ahold of large appliance size boxes, you can make your own custom boxes? 

I make my own boxes from cardboard rescued from the recycling drop off centre near me.

This always struck me as the safest method I have ever seen for sending a CBG by Wichita Sam

 Bicycle boxes from bike shops. Usually free, but some charge a few bucks.

Those are pretty slick, a lot faster than freehand?

A lot more accurate at making straight folds. I love mine when I sold bike parts online a few years ago. They are about $15-$20 online.
