Sounds familiar. I have the Tele kit, am building the explorer as we speak. Never been a fan of the SG, though I am doing an LP kit at the minute. SUCH FUN! and much sanding.

I'm yet to experience the sanding. I'm sure I'll know all about it soon.
Got a call from my wife saying that the kit has been delivered. Looks like Aus post trough it over the fence even though there is 'fragile' all over the box. :mad: Hope it's all ok. I'll check it out when I get home.
That sounds a bit nerve-wracking, but I reckon it'll be OK. They're packed pretty well. When my LP arrived I was sure it'd be stuffed - the box looked like something heavy with a ridge on it had pressed hard into it straight down the middle, each corner was dented in, and there were large divots in the cardboard. But when I opened it up, the axe itself was totally undamaged.
I keep seeing all these nightmare stories about length of delivery and damage on arrival, I am waiting for one of my deliveries to go utterly pear shaped and smeared in brown. It's got to be getting close to my turn?!
I hope it's all okay when you examine it mate, if there are any issues at all get straight on to Adam so he can put a rocket up Aust post.
sounds like a great plan, enjoy
Sounds like you've got a good local parcel contractor! Give him a beer this Christmas and beg him not to quit!
The last guy in this area was excellent before he retired, but the new guy's a lazy idiot - about a quarter of the time he either doesn't actually show up, doesn't leave a card, or delivers my parcels to the neighbour's place instead (or vice versa).
That said it's super rare that I get something that's actually damaged, and I'd rather run around and collect stuff than deal with broken items.
Thanks for the replies guys. I'll post later this arvo when I get home and hopefully add some pics as well.
sorry I missed your question earlier Bob, yea I upgraded to a gold Schaller
