Since PRS has announced the dates, it got me thinking. Those who have purchased guitars, amps, large items...how do you get them home? Have them shipped? Try to carry on a guitar friendly airline and put in planes closet? What do/would you do?

Passenger seat of the car.......six hours aint too bad a drive for the cause....
I have put them in the overhead luggage compartment on the Plane..............
If you don't want to take it with you, the dealer you purchase it from can have it shipped to his store where he will in turn ship it to you.Quote:

Well I didn't even know you could buy guitars there since I've never been. I guess I should start saving up now then.
Last year if you bought a guitar they handed you a $100 bill. :DQuote:

Just curious, what is the need for shipping it to the dealer store first before shipping it to the owner? Doubling the chances of having FedEx or UPS moshing my brand new axe makes me cringe a little. If it's so they can provide you a special "dealer pro setup," can you maybe opt out of it and just request that it be shipped directly to you from the factory?Quote:

We'll see if I can hold out til then and bank more cash. I can see how that would be cool. But if something pops up....well, you know how it goes:D
I am trying my best to hold out in my purchases until the Experience this year, but it is getting harder to do especiallly with Shawn's PS friday thread!!
THIS!!!!!Quote:

Do they have SEs there too?
Now that you ask I don't think I remember seeing any. Maybe a couple at the actual dealer booths.
I may be wrong but I think that sales floor is all about the big babies.
