Opinions vary. I don't know the finish on this guitar, but certainly part of the answer depends on how upset you'll be if you can't wait and ruin the finish.

When my 000 arrived under those conditions I left the box in a cooler inside space for a few hours. Then I moved it to a warm room in the house and left it overnight. In the morning I took the case out of the box and waited another 4 hours.

Was that being overly concerned? No doubt. But I was going to be extremely upset if I ruined the finish, so I decided I could actually survive and even thrive waiting one more day to play the guitar. Others have reported only waiting a few hours and being fine.

You pays your money and you takes your chances.
