Yes! We specialize in affordable expertise and services to small businesses to help you get the most out of your guitar resales.

Our inspection reports provide a wealth of data about your instrument. Potential retail buyers want assurances that they are getting a good product and often have specific questions about a used instrument. We provide detail-based analysis to give you confidence in your merchandise and advertisements.

We provide detailed evidence-based analysis which sometimes results in conclusive denial of an instrument's authenticity. While we cannot always guarantee this kind of confirmation, we will provide a detailed list of facts for comparison to factory specs, as well as our expertise on what to look for to draw your own conclusions. Check out our blog on this topic for an example of how we conduct this kind of analysis.

All guitars require a setup to make adjustments on the working parts to ensure playability. This is especially true on guitars that have not been played recently or have been in storage a long time. Virtually all guitars are made of wood, and factors such as humidity, temperature, and age of the wood will change how the parts all work together. A setup ensures that your merchandise is as clean and feels as playable as possible for its condition when it hangs on your shop wall. This is often a decisive factor if your customer buys a guitar or walks away.

No. All guitars require this service periodically to remain playable. The setup process cleans, inspects, and makes adjustments to the existing original hardware, similar to a tune-up on a car. 

Yes! We have experience buying and selling online. We offer consultation to help you customize your listings and reach your online buyers. Our product photography service will help your merchandise stand out, and our inspection data is the foundation of key selling points on your listings to help you sell with confidence. We are always happy to help you highlight the things that make your merchandise cool!

There is no such thing as a fake guitar. If you find out that it isn't what you thought it was, we can help you explore options for customization or other ways to make it a cool, sellable instrument in its own right.

Yes! We offer "house-call" service where we will come to your shop within the local Central Maryland region (Baltimore to Washington D.C.) for a consultation on a potential buy.

We accept all major credit cards, pay apps, or cash. No checks please. For most commercial customers, we provide a digital invoice via email through our secure online pay system. Payments can be made online or in person at the time of delivery.
