is it possible for a guitar to arrive 2 days early via ground UPS?

it says it has a squeduled delivery of 4/17 (monday), but last night at about 1 AM it left san fransisco, which is about 60 miles away from the destination of where i am. it seems like it could get here later today...but maybe im just getting my hopes up :/

I dont want to burst your bubble of happiness...... ^_^

However, I dont think UPS Delivers on Saturdays.   :UND>

We've all been there.  get some extra "Honey do s" done to buy time for playing when it is delivered. 

:mellow:

Often they will hold the guitar until the scheduled delivery day (they need to differentiate the service levels based on what they charged you).

I have called the local depot and gone to pick up a package when I know it is in a few days early, but won't be put on the local truck until the scheduled date is reached.  :GRN>

I recently sold an SD-60 to a guy in Michagan, I live in NJ.  I sent it out UPS "slow boat" ground on Wednesday night the 12th.  It was in his hands on Friday evening.  Good things can happen with UPS.

No - UPS Ground is Monday through Friday - no Saturday deliveries. Your guitar will spend this weekend on a truck or on a dock. I replied to you over at HC too (as Hudman).  :WNK>

could i go and pick it up? it is about 30 minutes away, in the UPS facility. is it availble, or is it packed way back in a truck?
