Hi Mike - I recently had Mike Soarez airlift a TG New York - Auckland NZ. He insisted I use EMS and fully insured, he double boxed it. 8-days after leaving...

Hi from, Mike. One other thing. On the A string - .010 - It should be an electric string. Not an acoustic. Electric's tend to have more give to then. Mike....
