Selling or consigning your guitar
 

Selling: We only purchase select guitars that meet our standards for inclusion in our inventory of fine guitars. Please call us at (805) 882-1166 or better yet, email us at guitars@soundboardguitars.com and let us know about your guitar. We need to know what you paid for it and when, the year, the maker, the woods on the top, back and sides, the scale length, the condition, and the price you are seeking (if you know that). If you need help with any of these items contact us and we can advise you. We can usually only approximate a price that we might pay until we actually see the guitar. In order to obtain a final price from us, or final rejection if the guitar does not meet our standards, you will ultimately need to send the guitar to us. You will almost always make more money if you sell via consignment ( see below ) than if you sell for cash. But, if we purchase your guitar it leads to immediate cash, while consignment sales are less predictable in terms of the time/price involved. If you send us your guitar see " How to pack your guitar" for instructions about how to safely ship to us.

Consignment: We accept selected guitars that meet our standards for inclusion in our inventory of fine guitars for consignment as well. Our consignment fee varies depending on the guitar involved. Call us at (805) 882-1166 or better yet email us at guitars@soundboardguitars.com for details. We will need to know what you paid for the guitar and when, the year, maker, woods on top/back/sides,scale length, condition and the price you are seeking. If you need help with any of these items please contact us and we will advise you. If your guitar is accepted for consignment we will email/fax/ or send you a consignment contract for your signature. If you send your guitar to us, please see "How to pack your guitar".
