Coldest temperature to safely ship a nitro finished guitar

[pete12string]

What do you think is the coldest temperature to safely ship a nitro finished guitar? I have a AVRI '62 Tele that I've been holding off having shipped to me due to the cold weather. I know about the slow warm up process, but what's the coldest temp that's considered "safe" for shipping?

Ask Fender...they ship them to dealers in the Northern US/Canada all year round.

I dont think the cold temp matters, all that matters is all quickly it is warmed up.

Good idea! Fender should know... I'll do that and let you know what they say.

It'll probably be fine as long as you let it warm up, but I would also have at least a little concern with the winter we're having.

Also, I don't know where it's shipping from, but I would try to have it shipped on a Monday so that it hopefully doesn't spend a weekend "on ice".
