Most say leave the box be for at least 12 hours. Then take the case out and give that another 6 at least. But I have been told a few hours of esch is fine. A gloss finish is more at risk from what I hear.
My Guild M-20 yesterday I gave a couple hours in box, couple more in case and it wasn’t cold at all despite cold temps in Michigan. But it is satin varnish so I wasn’t worried.
It is an agonizing wait!
