Where did all the used instruments go?
All over the world, the cupboards are bare, and good used instruments have become tougher to find. In a difficult economy,  many people would prefer to purchase a good used instrument rather than a new one. If you are looking for something that isn’t on our list, a helpful suggestion might be to call, let us know what you are looking for, and then we can contact you when something arrives that might be just the right thing. As new instrument prices continue to rise, finding a good used instrument will continue to be a challenge.

Are you thinking of selling a used instrument?
We are always looking for used instruments to sell. We do all the repairs, so an instrument doesn’t have to be in perfect shape upon arrival. It does, however, have to be of sufficient quality that it will be a fine and desirable instrument upon completion of all necessary repairs.
