New guitar day ! Only 1 complaint

[80's_Thrash_Metal]

FedEx guy just dropped this off.....

I ordered a B stock Harley Benton V for pretty cheap, I think it looks cool as hell!

Only one small complaint, the action is pretty high! Might need some adjusting? Lmao!

Ha ha ha ha right? Luckily I have a few, and some titebond as well... We shall see what they offer.

Well now we know waht the B in B-stock is for

 

[Seashore]

Dude.

More like F-stock.

Just yikes.

I just realized there is a typo in my thread title (that is impossible to just edit!) and that bothers me more than this broken guitar ha ha ha.

You can always register a conplaint with the adnin

Looks like the Flying V was flown across the FedEX warehouse at some point.

 

[beaubrummels]

See, that's what happens when you forget to put that ever-important "Do Not Fold or Bend" sticker on the box.

 

[Mincer]

Wow, that is awful. How does that even happen?

 

[GuitarStv]

Was it broken before shipping? The box looks like it's in pretty good condition.

In case you haven't been paying attention - the Post Office, UPS, and FedEx are all breaking and losing stuff on the regular - and lying about it afterwards.

​​​​​FedEx driver either fell on top of it, or dropped something heavy onto it. The guitar was strung tight, and zero padding between headstock and V tips. Any weight or pressure would go directly to this joint is my guess.
I watched a few HB unboxing videos and they all said they were packed poorly.
This one is no exception. The top side of the smaller box is ripped out like it took a fall at least once in its trip.

 

[80's_Thrash_Metal]

Something like this maybe...

 

[Rex_Rocker]

OMG... what a heartbreak.

 

[JMP/HBE]

It came with a supply of crack ...
