Specialists in used and vintage

Oscar Guitars is a unique guitar store specializing in second hand and vintage instruments. We buy used instruments, and sell to customers all over the world. Why buy new when you can buy Pre-Owned or Pre-Loved as some prefer to call it? It is of course one of our world´s current and most important messages, and is right on time. And wouldn´t you agree that an instrument only gets its soul after you've played it for a while? Of course we have certain favorite brands that we often look for which is evident in our range, but we also love to find quirky and slightly more personal instruments that may not be as well known. Our specialist area includes the instrument group Plucked String Instruments where we include guitar, bass, mandolin, banjo and some other instruments. We also work a lot with effects pedals and guitar amplifiers. And of course we handle all accessories such as bags, cases, straps and other things that the guitarist may need.

Guitar Safari

To find interesting instruments, we travel a lot. We visit all major guitar shows around the world, and often make home visits to musicians, collectors, recording studios and music stores in Sweden and abroad. Those of you who have followed us for a long time know that we like to go to the USA on so-called Guitar Safaris, where we often rent a big car and drive around to visit friends and buy instruments, and at the same time have some fun with good food and good music of course.

Descriptions

We are known for being honest and accurate, and spend a lot of time on our descriptions. That's why the big collectors turn to us when it's time for new investments or valuations and sales. And therefore even families with children or beginners feel comfortable and welcome with us. Our descriptions do not attempt to paint a embellished picture, but should only provide accurate and clear information about condition, weight, measurements, specifications, history, damage and defects, any modifications or replaced parts, and what accessories are included. Then it is up to the customer to decide whether they want to buy their stuff from us or from someone else. Thanks to this philosophy, we have established a large trust capital among musicians, both in Sweden and abroad.

The store's objective

The goal for us from the very beginning has always been to build Northern Europe's nicest and finest guitar shop / showroom where you can handle all models, all colors, all brands, all instruments in a way that would otherwise only have been possible in the big country in the west . And we want to do it as well as possible, so that the next generation can also share the passion that we ourselves have lived with for so many years. The only way to get there is to work closely with the musical environment, i.e. you and your friends, and that together we continue with the job of spreading music and the joy of playing in every possible way. We ourselves think that we have come very far in our goal, but at the same time there is always the next step. We think this is so much fun, but it's also our job. And we are incredibly happy when the feedback we get is this good:

Sell to us

A common question we get is: Do you want to buy my guitar? Or can you help me sell my guitar? Do you reach international customers? I have seen high prices online but I don't know how to proceed. The answer is yes, and we know how to proceed. We have a long wish list from our regular customers that we try to help them get hold of. It has to be the right color, vintage, weight, tone, etc. And we constantly want to bring more instruments into the store, to match these requests if possible. What do you have that you would like to sell? Check with us first.

Selling privately or to/via store?

We always try to pay as much as we can so that you come back several times, and that you have a reason to recommend all your friends to go to us when it's time to sell. Private sales of musical instruments is a jungle that can be good or bad. At least we try to make it simple, and we notice that our customers are happy with what we do. Serious sales require a lot of work and knowledge, and it often requires a lot of preparation in the form of descriptions / communication / demo films / pictures of all the details and sometimes also blacklight pictures / personal calls on weekends and late evenings to other continents where we get to describe the sound character, the profile of the neck, weight and measurements, etc. before it becomes a deal, and then it's time for packing, handling customs documents, tracking packages, as well as following up and making sure everything goes well in the end, but we're used to it.
