- Photos are taken during the packing process to make sure nothing is missed.
USA/Canada Shipping
- Within the US and Canada, we will ship via selected freight carriers. We do not use low-price/high-damage carriers as we want the equipment to get safely to you.

We have extensive experience packing and shipping fragile instruments globally.
Our experience and process
