Transporting CBGs......
A friend of mine is going to his first craft show in October. He will be taking 20 cbgs with him. He would like to know how he they could be packed without getting any scratches or dings on them.
Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
-W.T.

lay them on a flat surface (back of SUV, or Van) heel and toe side by side, with layers of blankets or bubble wrap inbetween layers of CBGs. I once took 50 CBGs from Wichita to Huntsville in a midsize sedan with no casualities at all.

I've got a big stack of gig bags from past purchases and cheap ones from the Music Go Round. Usually $5 or $6. I've got a dozen of those and a lot of guitar boxes (cardboard). I'll send a sale home in one of the cardboard boxes. Also i've got a few chip board cases. I can get 15 guitars in my Chevy Aveo without any problem.

I transport mine in large Rubbermaid totes. I can put three on the bottom, wrap in a lyre of old blankets. I can fit 12-15 in each tote. The totes go in my truck or back seat of my car.
