SHOULD YOU BUY A NEW OR USED GUITAR?: OUR OPINION

Buying New Guitars

New guitars offer peace of mind, warranties, and the latest models. They’re a great choice if you want something untouched and predictable.

Buying Used Guitars

Used guitars often give better value, especially at mid-range budgets. Many of our customers are surprised at what they can afford second-hand.

What We Tell Our Customers

There’s no “right” answer — it depends on:

• Your budget

• Your playing level

• What feels right in your hands

  
  

Setup Matters More Than New vs Used

Whether a guitar is new or used, setup is everything. A properly set-up guitar will always outperform one that isn’t.

Our Final Advice

Try as many guitars as you can, ask questions, and don’t rush the decision. We’re always happy to help customers choose the right instrument for them.
