Buying Guitar online!

[Petrucci]

hey!!do anyone of u ever bought a guitar overseas?as in asking them to ship in and all!!and buying guitar online is cheaper or buying at shops is better?was just wondering!

You can't really compare cheaper and better. :mrgreen:

I did purchase an acoustic and an Fender Strat overseas and shipped them back myself. Both are still great! As for the money saved, it depends on whether you are willing to deal with situations such as the guitar was damaged in transit because insurance claims can be a lengthy process and shipping back to seller is not cheap at all.

Some may be cheaper, some may not. Of course shipping would carry it's own risks.
For my past guitar, I ordered it in from Ishibashi, only because Singapore didn't carry that particular model. Luckily, everything came properly.
