Kinda funny how I got it -- I was afraid I'd miss the delivery, being at work, and I would have. I had left a note offering my office's address as an alternate, if they were able to take hand-written notes (doubt it :P). However, while I was at work, the UPS guy came, and I asked if he had anything for my address -- bingo! He ran out to the truck to get it.
Kinda made me worry about UPS' security policy; could I ask for any address, confirm the name and take it? That's what I did with this. Sure, I signed for it, but I coulda scribbled "FUQ U" on there and it wouldn't have mattered.
Anyway, I got home later, got it set up, went to make my first attempt at tuning, and -sproing!- I broke the G-string. The only replacement string it came with is A. That made me sad.
Nonetheless, have a picture.
