A unique and eclectic selection of musical instruments and parts from around the world, brought to the USA for you by Northwest Vintage Guitars. We have a Five Star rating on every platform we do business on. This shop houses a wide selection of Vintage Japanese Guitars, Player Grade Guitars, Luthier project guitars, Vintage and Modern parts, husks, and anything else that we don't list on our main site. Most products are assessed for viability and originality, then carefully cleaned and restored before we present it to you. We offer a no questions asked return policy on most items. Some items are presented in "As Found" or "Luthier Project" grade. These project pieces are examined for viability, a repair assessment is made, and our assessment is included in the description. For example, if an acoustic guitar has 4.5 mm action, the saddle is very low, and the bridge has been shaved once, it's time for a neck reset and possible bridge and saddle replacement. If we observe broken or loose braces, a lifting bridge, or broken bridge plate, it will be photographed and noted. We describe these items the best we can and project items are sold as-is with no return.
Frequently asked questions:
Q: Will you accept offers?
A: If the item allows offers, please make your offer. If offers are not allowed, keep an eye on it. Our items are priced well and inventory moves quickly. We don't discount often but we do occasionally run promotions.
Q: Will you accept trades?
A: Trades are an important part of the vintage guitar business and we always welcome in person trades. We are a business so the trade has to make sense for us, but we always do our best.
Reverb specifically excludes trades as an acceptable transaction on their site so we don't pursue trades on Reverb.
Q: Q; What is your best price?
A; Please make your best offer. If the item doesn't allow offers, keep an eye on it.
Q; How do you ship?
A; You can rest assured that your guitar will arrive safely. Every guitar is detuned and securely fixed inside the case, the fretboard is protected, the headstock is wrapped, and the Aeris packing system keeps it safe inside a new shipping box. All shipments are fully insured and shipped via UPS Ground unless other arrangements are made prior to purchase. Please message us for International Shipping quotes and be sure to include your complete address, phone number, email, and preferred carrier for a complete, accurate, and quick response.
