We Purchase

We pay top dollar for all stringed instruments. Although we’re most interested in older instruments, we buy others as well. If you live nearby and can bring your instrument to the shop, a decision can usually be made within 15 minutes and payment is immediate. If we decide not to buy your instrument, we’ll be happy to direct you to someone else who might want to purchase it.
Those of you who live too far away can email us pictures. There is always some risk involved with shipping musical instruments so we recommend sending photos to get started. You can call us for packing and shipping information or visit our Shipping Instructions page. For those of you who live in the area, please call for an appointment (816) 252-5656.
