If your anywhere near a Guitar Center, Sam Ash, or other music store,
they might have a box left over from one of their keyboards. Sometimes
you can get lucky.

best luck i've had with this stuff is to stick a layer of bubblewrap
around it then measure it. add an inch or two all around for peanuts.
then find boxes which fit the endcaps and are deep enough to overlap
in the middle. in the past i've cannibalised smaller boxes to provide
more reinforcement around the corners, too. works for me.
