Bought a Dean Zone H a few months on ebay and it arrived at my front door shipped in a rather interesting way.

Be Nice if I could ship my Guitars like that ,Save Us all some Money! But the kind I ship, well u would have to Glue them back together & I don't think "Elmers" glue would work? Plus they may not work as well as before 
I will say that is Different  |

It's not the worst I've seen. It made it there safely at least. I got a guitar shipped to me one time.....all the guy did was stick a label on the case lol. |

I had a $2000 Custom Jackson shipped to me from Costa Rica that way once !!!!! Luckily I picked it up at the airport and it was unharmed. |

I had a couple bolt on guitars sent like that. They were coming without cases. Of course, they were a lil better padded and packed, but were seperated. 
Looks cool. Let's see the put togdether shot.  |

That reminds me of an interview I saw with Vinnie Moore. He said when he fly's overseas with his Dean's he takes the necks off and puts them in between clothes in his suitcase. |

1st time I shipped a guitar I did that. I had no idea what I was doing. In retrospect I have no idea how it arrived in tact. Got lucky I guess. |

Talk to Tom about that. He's done that twice- puts the body in his suitcase and the neck in his carry-on. |

From what I heard, Vinnie Moore puts his back together and everything's fine. |

Bolted a Hamer neck back on a Hamer T51 body and the same with a Dean Z. Both played well and in no need of alignment.

Ah, the Tommy special! Now you mentioned that, that was how I brought the Zone H I bought at Jody's back and forth. |
