Musical Instruments FAQs for Carlton
Which musical instruments do you buy?
Electric and acoustic guitars (Fender, Gibson, Martin, Taylor, PRS, Gretsch, Epiphone), basses, violins, violas, cellos (including student and intermediate), brass (trumpets, trombones, French horns, tubas), woodwind (saxophones, clarinets, flutes), and amplifiers (Fender, Marshall, Vox, Mesa Boogie, Orange).
Do I need original case and accessories to get a good offer?
They help — significantly. A guitar with the original hard case, tremolo arm, certificates, and any included accessories is worth more than a bare guitar. We still buy instruments without cases, but the offer reflects it.
What condition do instruments need to be in?
Functional, with no major damage. Frets don't need to be perfect, but the neck should be straight, electronics should work, valves/springs should function, and there shouldn't be cracks, broken headstocks, or major structural issues. Cosmetic wear is fine; functional problems reduce the offer.
Do you buy vintage and collectible instruments?
Yes — and we often pay more for the right vintage pieces. Pre-1980s Fender and Gibson, vintage Martin acoustics, vintage Selmer saxophones, pre-war violins — these are collectible. Bring it in, we'll tell you what it is and what it's worth.
Can I pawn an instrument instead of selling it?
Yes. We lend against quality instruments using the same valuation process. If you want the guitar back after a set term, a pawn loan is the way. If you're done with it, sell it outright for cash today.
