Is there any change of the bass getting harmed/damaged due to shipping/transportation? How is it packed for shipping?

It is possible, however when my bass came it was well packaged. I feel they adaquately packed it with enough protection. It comes in the epiphone box from the factory. Then, it is packed again from Amazon. Hope this helps.

There's always a chance I guess, but it's securely held in a thick, sturdy Epiphone cardboard box fitted to the particular model. I have had two Epiphone bass guitars shipped in similar packaging (one internationally) and both were in perfect condition on arrival.

The bass was packaged in the Epiphone box with bubble wrap and then inside another box. When I received my bass, there was absolutely no damage. Of course there is always the possibility of something heavy being thrown on top of it and causing damage, but in my opinion, the way it is packaged minimizes the chances of there being any damage to the guitar.

The way they package the Rumblekat is so secure that the ONLY WAY it would get damaged would have to be done on purpose. Mine was delivered; wrapped, and placed inside a package that was inside another package.

If you are shipping or bringing it overseas, to keep it from being damaged and in the original box it is fairly large. A little longer than the sound bar and as wide as the sub. Check the specs to get a better idea. Good Luck

My saxophone came shipped by UPS service. The box it came in was the original Mendini box or carton. The saxophone I received was shipped with no problem from KK Music Store. They stipulate if there is a problem of breakage to report it in 24 hours. The saxophone will probably be sent UPS or FED EX as I don`t think the US mail will handle something as big as that. As to your question, will it break ? I guess that depends on how rough they handle it in shipping. Make a claim right away if it does come damaged or broken.

Hi,So far we haven't had any issues as you can see by the reviews but I can't make any guarantees. You never know with the shipping company. Maybe purchase a extra box just in case?Thanks,Dan

There was no damage to my set. The box for the table was slightly banged up but the table was fine thanks to the Styrofoam packing. I checked everything before I signed to accept delivery. I love this set. We had family visiting this weekend and it was nice to fit everybody around one table.

I believe the shipping weight listed is 60 lbs. But once put together, each piece weighs 5-10, with the bass being the heaviest. Hope this helps. My son really enjoys it and it has held up well with his 5 year old brother and him playing it daily.

Nope. Ours did the same thing, and they informed us that we had to package up the entire system, including the speakers and send it in for repair. Oh, and they want you to pay for shipping too. This was around6 months ago, so maybe they've changed...but I highly doubt it.

Without a guitar case, this normally has a shipping weight of about 10 pounds. Dimensional weight for shipping cost will be more than that due to the large size of the box. I'll be happy to help with any other questions. Thanks, Guy

should be against manufacturer defects and shipping damage. check with place of puchase.

The guitar was sent in its original box which was taped at the top and bottom but not in the middle. This made it possible to get into the box during shipment. It was a miracle the guitar wasn't damaged. The box was also ripped in a few places. Not very good.

Mine has no scratches or cracks. Sounds like you may have a bad one. It probably won't affect the sound but I know that when you buy something new, it should be in nice condition. Mine came wrapped in a plastic sealed bag inside the case and both ends of the middle piece had plastic caps. Good luck.

Gosh, it's been a few months now and they came in a bigger box with other things. The guitars were each wrapped in an individual plastic bag, and as I recall, they were really small. Don't think it would be too bad to ship. Sorry this isn't more helpful.

May be it had some kind of defect or a bump during shipping. No problem at with mine.

The guitar comes quickly and safely packed in a box with casing and secured in place & very lightweight. I have ordered two and have not had any problem.

I have had it in a single sealed and I have dule ported, for a sealed box, they are noticeable. However if you put them in a ported box, they slam hard so it's really what you want, if you want to get noise complaints then go ported

No...there were small dings in a couple places. Nothing I would return it for, but you probably wouldn't have this issue if you bought something locally and picked it up or had it delivered. Packaging appears adequate, but it's obviously not up to the rigors of shipment.
