WHAT WE OFFER
If your gear is something that we are looking for, we might offer you one of the following options:

Consignment

This is generally our most popular option and everyone’s always happy with the outcome. You leave your item with us for sale (whilst still retaining ownership) and then once it sells we can pay you out on the pre-agreed price.  This option generally sees you get the highest return for your item.

Outright Purchase

Can’t be bothered with Gumtree or just want something gone? We are a fully licensed second hand dealer and so we can pay you out in cash for your item (cash, direct deposit, or cash cheque available). 

Trade In

Want to turn your Fender into a Gibson or your old amp into a new acoustic? We can offer store credit towards anything in the store to help you get your dream guitar. Turn your few intermediate guitars into the guitar of your dreams!

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

We love seeing your gear in person, so if you're able to bring it down to the shop that's always the best option. However we can also arrange interstate consignment/trading and assist with having your gear collected by courier. In most cases we will arrange the freight for you. All you have to do is organise the packing. 

Any pictures and info will help us accurately value your gear, although any final price is still dependant on us inspecting the item in-store. Rarely will this differ from our pre-delivery quote. We're also happy to skype/facetime so you can show the condition of your item.

We're especially interested in: Vintage guitars, basses, and amps, American and Japanese quality guitars, Valve Amplifiers and Pedals, Anything rare and ususual and boutique brands. 

For some items like large 4x12 cabs, full stacks, big 2x12 combo's its best to contact us via phone or email before dropping into the store. We can't always take these sorts of items on as it depends how much space we have in store at anyone time. 

Similarly, we may also refer you to a private sale if the item is uneconomical to repair or in low demand currently. 

We take all the hassle out of selling privately! Fill in the form below to get started.
