If I don't have a case, I custom build a box for the bass (of course covered, COVERED in bubble wrap).
I think length + width + girth has to = >108"
Include insurance in the dudes shipping price.
With the actual bass box (not card board), I'm at 103 inches total. LOL. That leaves only 5 inches of safety. Now I could add 5 inches to the girth right?

It was too big for USPS, he ended up having to use UPS. At the price he paid he should've just hopped on a flight instead, Ireland is lovely though.

Which is like, wrapping the bass box in bubble wrap. Once. Make sure you detune the strings when you ship it.

See that's what I thought.
I'm probably not going to do it. Too much of a fucking hassle. I'd love to get an MTD I'm eyeing but I love this Roscoe and I just don't want to fuck with International bass sales. Anything else and I'd be down. The bass just can't be protected the way it needs to be if I ship international and I'd die inside if it got busted. Fucking die.
I don't even know why I'm entertaining the shit. Must be my loopy fucking brain from giving marrow. I'm seriously out of it these last several days. I can't really think straight. So annoying. It'll get better, but it's a pain in my ass (literally...my ass hurts).

Here's his BATSHIT INSANE response, where he accused the victim guy of doctoring the photos in photoshop, and then says that maybe the glue marks are just oil that wasn't wiped off:

ew. what a burning DICKHOLE.
lol. all of that's preposterous, since yeah.... lighting could change how a finish looks, but saying someone added some glue? and what about that horrible tummy cut part and the sanded through bits and the weird horn? ugh.
AND that video where he showed how he couldna set it up? AC guy seems like a horrible little person.
....... dooder should have bought a Dinger.
