Mailing Your Package

This page describes best practices to send your bolt-on guitar neck by mail. Please read carefully and follow these recommendations.

The best way to send your guitar neck by mail is inside of a 6" x 30" heavy duty mailing tube. The guitar neck should be wrapped either in crumpled paper, or Honeycomb packing paper, or standard bubble wrap.

Your package should include a pre-paid return mailing label, inside the box.

It is your decision and responsibility if you wish to pay for additional insurance in either direction.

the 6" x 30" mailing tube

We recommend the ProLine 6" x 30" Heavy-Duty Mailing Tube. This tube is .125" thick and comes with two plastic caps.

The caps MUST BE secured with packing tape, before shipping, to make sure they don't fall off. Please DO NOT ship your guitar neck inside of a tube, without securing the end caps with packing tape.

The USPS Small Tube Box is a free option. Wile it is free, it is slightly smaller than the 6" x 30" round tube and also less robust, and a standard guitar neck barely fits inside. but it is free.
