ABOUT GEAR UP MUSIC
YOUR TRUSTED INSTRUMENT PARTNER
At Gear Up Music, our melody begins with a simple belief: Instruments are "made to be played." Nestled within each string, key, and valve lies a world of emotions, stories, and memories waiting to be unearthed. It was this realization that led to the birth of our company.
Our Melodic Beginnings
The founder, deeply passionate about music, observed a common sentiment among fellow musicians. In lofts and garages, cherished instruments were gathering dust — not from neglect, but as life's rhythms shifted. For every instrument that lay dormant, there was an eager individual somewhere, dreaming of embracing the magic of music but deterred by issues of accessibility and cost. Motivated by this poignant contrast — between the silent instruments and the silent aspirations — Gear Up Music was born. He envisioned a platform where instruments could find a new lease on life, providing budding artists a gateway to their musical journey.
Driven by this duality — the silent instruments and the silent dreams — Gear Up Music was conceived. We envisioned a platform where instruments could find a second life, and aspiring musicians a more accessible way to their first note.

"Outstanding service! I had a vintage Ibanez that was gathering dust, and I wanted it to find a new home. Gear Up Music made it so easy. Their valuation was fair, and the entire process was smooth and professional. What I loved most was the care they showed towards my guitar - it felt like sending it off to a new life rather than just selling it. Highly recommend Gear Up Music to anyone looking to sell their guitar!"

I was a bit hesitant about selling my keyboard online, but this company exceeded my expectations. The entire process was transparent and efficient. Their team was friendly and responsive, addressing all my concerns promptly. I appreciated the fair evaluation of my keyboard, and the payment was transferred to my account within the promised timeframe. Selling my keyboard to them was a hassle-free experience, and I wouldn't hesitate to do business with them again.
