Order Processing and Communication Delays, Friday March 10 through Monday March 20.

There will be delays for most orders placed between the dates above.  Our shipping department, front office, custom design, and some production will be closed during this time.  Most pedalboard and case production will continue and won’t be affected as much.  Please note the additional lead time listed below.  We apologize for any inconvenience.  Thank you for your patience.

Lead time refers to the estimated time it takes to process your order. This is from the time all order details are received and payment has been approved to the time your package is picked up by the shipping carrier at our location. It does not include weekends, holidays or shipping time in transit.

Keep in mind that due to the wide selection of sizes and options, most Stompin-Ground pedalboards, cases and many cables are made to order.  Occasionally other items may run out of stock or there may be other delays.  If so, we will make every effort to give you prompt notification.

Normal lead times listed by the type of products:

• General merchandise, pre-packaged name brands, and other items listed as in-stock: 1-2 business days
• Pedalboard patch cables, instrument cables and made to order power cables: 4-5 business days.
• Stompin-Ground.com pedalboards: 2-3 weeks.
• Stompin-Ground.com cases (all styles): 6 weeks.

If your order contains items with different lead times, use the longest time listed. Often we make 2 shipments for orders in the continental US if your order contains a custom case plus other items since cases have a long lead time.

Time Sensitive Delivery Dates:  Lead times listed are for reference and may vary from day to day. If you need a time sensitive delivery, you must notify us in advance with the latest time and date your package can be in your hands. For example, “by end of day on (_date_)”. We must pre-approve and confirm that time and date with you. We may require you to use an expedited shipping method such as UPS 1-Day or 2-Day service to meet your requirements. Please do not make date requests unless it is necessary. We ship everybody’s orders in a timely manner.
