Every instrument holds a symphony of stories, waiting to be strummed to life. At Gear Up Music, we believe instruments are crafted not just from wood, strings and metal but from memories and melodies. Don’t let your instrument's song be silenced by the passage of time. Instead, give it a chance to resonate in the hands of another passionate player. Because every instrument, just like every story, is truly #MadeToBePlayed.

    "Absolutely top-notch experience with Gear Up Music! I was initially skeptical about selling my Fender Strat online, given it's been with me since my teen years. But their process is seamless. From the moment I inquired, the team was transparent about pricing, and the free packaging materials they sent were of great quality. The courier was gentle with my guitar and assured me of its safe delivery. A couple of days later, the payment was in my bank. It's evident that they care not just about the instruments but also about the stories and emotions tied to them. Would recommend to anyone looking to pass on their guitar to a new home!"

    "I've been meaning to sell my old acoustic for years but never got around to it because of the hassle. A friend mentioned Gear Up Music, and I decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I did! The process was straightforward, and I was kept informed at every step. The best part? Knowing my guitar might find a new owner who'll cherish it as much as I did. Thanks, Gear Up Music, for making this so easy!"

    "I've sold a few things online over the years, and it's usually a mixed bag of experiences. But Gear Up Music has set a new standard! I recently sold my Gibson Les Paul through them. The communication was clear, pick-up was on time, and payment was prompt. The team's passion for music and instruments shines through, and it's comforting to know my guitar is in good hands. Will be recommending to all my musician friends!"
