[Greywolf]

Have an of the US folks purchased from a Canadian shop , if so wondering if customs is a hassle ? Found a dream guitar up there ... checking if the reverb listing is in canadian or us $ too ..

By default, Reverb will convert the price to your local currency.

I’d be wary of anything having Braz bits.

I've bought from and sold to private individuals in Canada and never had a problem. I doubt a shop would be much different.

That thing is outrageously hot! I’d do that in a hot minute, and the Mrs would be so pissed!

yeah .. if I hadn't just got the rosewood neck McSoapy I'd have snatched it asap .. for now I'll watch for a while .

Why haven't you bought it yet??

 

[Greywolf]

I haven't pulled the trigger yet because I got a New SG Modern and the Rosewood neck McSoapy in the last month .... and nah not AC/DC ... Tommy Bolin ....

My 2009 McSoaparina, bought used, came from a Canadian shop shipped to Louisiana. According to Tech Support it has a Brazilian Rosewood fretboard. That wasn't a part of the description so it may have been overlooked at that time. There were no issues with customs that I was aware of, but the guitar did spend almost two weeks sitting in a warehouse at the border waiting to clear customs.

Thanks! that's what I'm afraid of with this crazy heat

I was recently told by a PRS shop in Canada that they can't sell to the US. I assume it's a dealer stipulation or something. This was for new PRS gear not used.

I've bought many times from shops and individuals from Canada. Customs has been easy but the experience can vary.
