Hey TBK711, I went through this torture not too long ago. If you look at the thread, I occupied myself by taking a photo of the outer box first. once room temp, the Guild box. again, waited until room temp, then the guild case, etc. until I felt I could safely take out the guitar.
totally worth the wait. Of course, i also spent time on here searching threads, watching YouTube videos of others playing the Oxnard M20, etc.
Enjoy! I look forward to seeing a photo of your new baby once free from the confines of the boxes and case!
