You cannot package an instrument too carefully. Please pack your instrument expecting the worst possible handling. We cannot control handling in transit.

NOTE: We recommend that if you are going to use packing peanuts, the equipment should be wrapped in plastic or placed inside a plastic bag prior to packing to provide protection against the packing material getting inside of the equipment.
