How is the offer calculated?

Four factors: condition and playability, brand and model, current shop inventory, and market demand. A guitar that plays well from a brand that moves quickly gets a stronger offer than one that needs work or sits in a slow category.

How Selling to Us Works

Bring it in. We look at it together. You get an offer based on condition, playability, and current demand.

No pressure. No obligation.

Bring Your Guitar Ready to Evaluate

Tuned, complete, and cleaned up if you can. We're evaluating playability and condition, not presentation, but a guitar that's ready to play is easier to assess and the offer reflects that.

What We Buy

Guitars and basses in playable or repairable condition. Fender, Martin, Gibson, Epiphone — all most major brands. If it's playable or repairable and there's a market for it, we'll make an offer.

What We Don't Buy

Instruments with major structural damage or missing parts that make evaluation impossible, unless it's a desirable vintage piece where the market justifies it.

What Affects the Offer

Condition and playability. A guitar that plays well gets a stronger offer.
Brand and model. Fender, Gibson, Martin move faster than off-brand instruments.
Current inventory. If we already have three of the same guitar, the offer reflects that.
Market demand. What players in this region are actually looking for.

Why Selling Local Makes Sense

You play it here, we make an offer here, you leave with cash or store credit the same day. No shipping, no platform fees, no waiting on a buyer who ghosts you, no strangers showing up at your house.

If you'd rather put the value toward something in the shop, trading is also an option. And if you're looking at what's currently available, check the used guitar inventory.
