Guitar Inactivity

Well, I ordered a guitar back in March, a Jackson MG Warrior. At the time, they said they didnt have any in stock, and that I would have to wait until late May/early June for my model, because that's the earliest they would receive it.

Well, I called today, and guess what... SURPRISE! Apparently they've had my model packed and ready to ship in their warehouse since March, but because of a glitch in the computers, they weren't aware of it.

So, basically, my question is... do you think that in those two months it was confined to their stanky warehouse, that my guitar will have been damaged at all? That is, I mean, maybe the humidity might've tinged it up or something. Will the conditions have screwed it up and will I need to buy replacement parts? Or what?

I know it's a stupid question, but I'm really the epitome of a guitar noob. :/

Nah, warehouses that store musical instruments would probably take care that the merchandise isn't exposed to any harms. If you do get it with any rust or warped neck all you need to do is return it, but I'm willing to bet it'll be fine.

It happens all the time, guitars are not like food, they often hang around in warehouses, shops etc for ages before someone buys them. They are built to be pretty hardy things, what with flying all over the world, bumped around in trucks, gigged in sweaty clubs and lying under peoples beds, it'll be cool.

Yeah. Plus most affordable guitars these days are made in Asia, the trip they make to Western countries alone should be a clear indication they can handle storage and transportation(when packed appropriately) well.
