Sell Your Guitar Near Wilton, NY
If you're near Wilton and want to sell a guitar, Paul's Guitar Hideout is about 20 minutes north of Wilton on I-87, in Glens Falls. Call or text first at (518) 217-8695, or bring it in during shop hours. We'll usually have a number for you before you leave.

The Drive
Wilton is the town north of Saratoga where the shopping is: the mall and the big stores off Exit 15, Route 9 and the Northway running parallel, and a lot of newer neighborhoods on the flat ground along the river.
About 20 minutes north on I-87, Exit 16 to Exit 18. Park in the Cooper Street lot at The Shirt Factory.
Where We Are
We're on the second floor of The Shirt Factory in Glens Falls. The building went up in 1902 as a men's shirt factory and made shirts until 1996. Today it's home to more than 70 studios, shops and galleries, and now a guitar shop. Use the Cooper Street entrance and take the stairs up. If stairs are difficult or you're bringing in something you don't want to carry up, call or text us and we'll arrange access.
How It Works
We look the guitar over with you. Offers are based on real-time Reverb sold listings, condition, demand, and what's already on our wall. Cash offers run about 50 percent of real market value. Accept the offer and you're paid by check the same day, or cash the next day. Trading gets you more than cash, case by case, and store credit can be issued the same day as a gift card. Offers hold for 7 days. Full terms on the sell and trade policy page.
Rather sell it yourself? You can definitely make more that way, and we'll give you a free consultation on how to sell it. Start with how to sell your guitar for the most money.

Trade It Instead
If you'd rather have a different guitar than cash, we evaluate it in person and apply credit toward the new purchase. More on the sell or trade page.
What to Bring
The guitar and anything that came with it: case, tags, paperwork. A complete package is easier to sell on, and we factor it in.
What Moves 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.
