AKG BX20 Transport

[AlgoRhythms]

I need to ship an AKG BX20 reverb across country. The manuals are absent with packing advice methods.
Its fragile and large. Anyone ever done this? Advice?

Thanks in advance.

I usually pack round the big cardboard tube containing the springs with a lot of bubblewrap to stop it banging against the case. Any extra cuashioning you can use is good news. It's always worked so far.

Thank you. That's what I intend to do. But am wondering if I should actually remove the cardboard tube from the suspension and pack separately. I see plusses and minuses to this.

I've never personally done that.

A friend bough my BX20 lately and moved it sideways. That was not great. Both channels are sounding very different now. A guy who servidced these before mentioned that inner suspensions o have some alignment parts which can get misaligned from moving it sideways. So make sure to have it upright all the way.
