When shopping for your next instrument, many options are available. One of these options is used gear, but don’t let that scare you away! You may want to buy brand-new but buying used provides you with a host of benefits that new doesn’t offer:
Environmentally Friendly
You heard that right! Buying used instruments and gear is more environmentally friendly than buying new ones! How musical instruments are made has mostly stayed the same over the years, and many of their components aren’t disposable. Buying used helps ensure that these older instruments are still in circulation and we’re helping save essential resources like wood and metal.
Used Instruments Are Budget Friendly
We don’t keep it a secret that used instruments are budget friendly and more cost-effective than renting. You can get a great deal on even brand names with used instruments! If you choose to sell, you will get a return on your investment.
Used Instruments Retain Their Value
When you sell your used instruments, you can rest assured that they retain their value through the years. Of course, the make, model, and condition are considered before the sale to determine its fair market value.
Used Instruments Have Real-World Experience
Did you know that used instruments get better with age? This is known as “maturing,” and the instrument has proven functional. Dana Bourgeois of Bourgeois Guitars says, “The best vintage guitars have a quick response, dry sound, good fundamentals without too many overtones, even balance string to string and strong projection.”
