Acceptable offer on the broken Uberkab?

Don't fix it until you file the FedEx claim. Also, Sweetwater may have to file since they were the shipper but either way definitely explore this route. They're the ones that damaged it.

Yeah Sweetwater has to file it and the money gets credited to them. Given the volume of SWs account with FedEx I am sure they will immediately approve it. That's probably why SW offered the $500 off already.

Sounds like everyone gets compensated and now Steve gets a sick cab for $500.

lolol yup!

I'll sell it to you for $800 don't worry.

FedEx will pick it up and "drop" it off at your house. JK of course, and yeah im pretty happy overall. I can move it almost (50%?) back into place with my hands and im a bitch so I'm certain with some clamps it will be a perfect fit and sealed.

So not bad then. And you’ve got a fix lined up for it? Awesome. Tite-bond wood glue is great btw.

Well yeah, someone showed me the clamps to use and they're cheap. Was going to get some loctite or maybe that tite bond.

There were a couple of other ideas posted as well to fix. I posted it in rig talk as well asking how to fix and got some good info.

Titebond is the way to go. I’m a hobbyist woodworker and always have a ton of it on hand.

Titebond III is the glue I’d use for this seam.

[ninjaraf]

I agree. Titebond III.

That’s what I used to repair my headstock break on my Les Paul 10+ years ago and it’s still stable as a rock.

Seriously, ratchet straps will work better in this case.
