Alrighty who it's been a while since I asked a question (and a serious one at that)

Lucky me I got my '59 for the 7 string in and am finally going to order the 7 String Full Shred from the Custom Shop.

But wait!

Will shipping through rather cold temperature damage the copper windings of the pickup?

If I order it now, the outside temperature when it possibly will arrive will be somewhere in the region of -35 celcius or -31 F (going by an online converter). I have some doubts that the pickup will reach that temperature, granted the pickup should be wrapped well and and in it's usual box.

But then again I've also picked up parcels in winter that were cold enough to cool beer with.

And to put in bluntly we've already got snow on the ground and believe me, I have serious doubts that it will go away. So, would being sent by mail through those temperatures damage the coils?

It shouldn't but I am no authority. Where in Canada are you?

North West Territories ... probably what 6-7 hours north of the Alberta-NWT border

Copper coils and a magent? I would not worry about anything getting damaged.

I'm not worried about the magnet. I don't think those temperature and deguass the magnet.

But with copper I don't know. But as a general rule metal contracts in colder temperature. Thus is why I have a little concern

I've left some pickups out in a cold garage for a winter or so. I haven't noiced any difference. They should be alright through a single shipment.

I live in alaska and I don't know anyone who has had trouble, I would worry more about the mail carriers accidentally crushing it or something. Canada mail is probly more reliable than US though.
