Used Guitars Near Clifton Park, NY

Paul's Guitar Hideout is about 40 minutes north of Clifton Park on I-87, in Glens Falls. Used guitars, new Fender and Martin as authorized dealer, repair work, setups, and lessons. Every used guitar we take in gets detailed and set up before it goes on the wall, new strings included.

Exit 9 to Exit 18, about forty minutes, all Northway. It's a long enough drive that people bring the guitar with them instead of describing it over the phone, which is the right call: we can't quote a setup or a trade on something we haven't seen.

The Drive

Clifton Park is the big Northway suburb at the bottom of Saratoga County, the largest town in the county, twelve miles up from Albany, and a place that mostly grew up after the highway came through.

About 40 minutes north on I-87, Exit 9 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.

What's On the Floor

Inventory varies week to week. Used guitars come in on trade, get evaluated and set up, and go on the wall when ready. The brands listed below are what's typically here, not a guaranteed list. Call or check the site for what's in stock today.

Fender, Gibson, Martin, Yamaha, Squier, and more. Used electrics, acoustics, and basses. What's on the wall right now is on our used guitars page.

Browse used electrics and used acoustics. Before you buy, read our used guitar buying checklist.

A first guitar from the used wall is covered on the beginner page, alongside sizes and setups; the guide carries the new ones under $300, priced.

Pricing

We check what these guitars are actually going for on Reverb, eBay, and similar, and price accordingly. If you're selling and want to know what to expect, read how much is my guitar worth.

Trade or Sell

If you have a guitar to sell or trade, 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.

Buying Used: What Usually Isn't Worth Fixing

Structural cracks, severe neck warp, a broken truss rod, and a lifted bridge on an acoustic are usually not worth it, or expensive. It's on our used guitar buying checklist, the list we'd run through ourselves before buying anything.
