Default How to post an (electric) guitar?

I thought this would be easy but not so...
Basically I want to send an electric guitar as an Xmas present to someone in the
uk (I'm also in the uk).

First of all I don't have anything big enough to put it it - so anyone know
someplace I can buy a HUGE jiffy bag or eqiv?


I'd seriously consider some form of rigid packaging. A guitar neck is
very easily broken when handled roughly by a carrier of some sort.

You really need a wooden box, or at the very least fasten the guitar
securely to a wood board before putting it in a "jiffy bag" or
whatever.

Or deliver it personally.

Merry Christmas!
