About Mandolin World Headquarters, Inc.

THANKS! for considering a purchase from me. I'm a collector and trader of vintage stringed instruments, and as such I don't have a retail store or showroom for you to browse. Over the last 29 years I have run the website Mandolin World Headquarters, Inc. (www.vintagemandolin.com). There are larger detailed pictures of all instruments listed here on my website. I have helped many players find the right instrument by offering listings of instruments accurately and honestly described via the mail, at guitar shows, and now on the internet. Please feel free to call or e-mail for any assistance or advice on the instruments listed here. I'm always pleased to talk instruments with you and to help you find the right one for your music!

Since 1984 I have been handling some of the finest in vintage fretted instruments. I've shipped hundreds of instruments during this time and I've learned how to do it right. All instruments will be safely and securely packed and shipped within 24 hours of receiving payment. To get the best service, call during business hours listed below or e-mail me. That way you can get an in-hand description of the instrument. Although I try to keep the web page current, you'll know in an instant whether the item you want is still available.

Payment: All credit cards accepted. Cashiers checks/ money orders/ Pay Pal/ Zelle ship immediately. Your personal check is welcome but it must clear your bank prior to shipping. Wire transfers only accepted for sales outside of the US.

Shipping: Customer pays shipping unless otherwise agreed. Will ship UPS, FEDEX, DHL, or USPS.

Returns: 48 hour approval period after receipt of instrument.

Please note I am a full time guitar dealer. I'm not on Reverb to wholesale guitars, so lowball offers will not work. Thanks.

No sales unless we have talked on the phone. These guitars are vintage or used; they are not new guitars. I want to discuss the guitar with you so you can make an informed decision and not be surprised when you open the box. All guitars are competely ready to go - no additional work is needed. Frets are dressed, guitar is set up, neck reset if necessary, and so on.

I will ship with tracking to the continental United States. Alaska, Hawaii, and international shipments may incur additional charges. Reverb software does not allow varible shipping rates based on distance so there is a ridiculous number in there. Shipping charges will be the normal UPS rate determoned by your distance from me.
