The tracking is actually working...I got an e-mail this morning that said the guitar arrived at the USPS Destination Facility in Des Moines at 5:50 am.

I'm in Omaha, which means if USPS was like UPS/FedEx, it would be delivered to me tomorrow...but since it's the USPS, more likely Thursday or Friday. Actually either of those days would be better for me...

...I can't help but keep picturing it being thrown off of trucks, though...thankfully, this one is in a case...

Just shipped a 19 pound $2200.00 insured guitar with case on Friday morning: FedEx Ground = 80.00 arrives Wednesday / UPS = 120.00 arrives Thursday / USPS = 140.00 arrives Monday. UPS and USPS shipping fees weren't to bad, it was the insurance that was ridiculous. FedEx got my business. I've used FedEx before for guitars, car wheels, cabinets but generally use USPS for smalls. UPS is generally too expensive for me.
