Tips on how to buy Musical Instruments online

Listening to music and playing musical instruments is fun and has several benefits. But, the point to note here is that getting the best musical instruments that’s suitable for your style might be a challenging task. Today, you’ll find different types of musical instruments to learn and play. This can confuse you and keep you wondering which one to choose and where to start. But, fret not we’re here to help you. Below are some tips to help you choose the best music instruments online.

  • Know your style – Indeed you want the most functional and sophisticated model. But, did you know that high-end instruments often have structural variations and endless pick combinations? Remember, all of these features drastically change the sound and feel of the instruments. Therefore, start basic and before buying make sure to know what you need.
  • Explore your options – Once you know what you need, next explore your various options available. Fortunately, you’ll find the musical instruments in different themes, colours and styles. Apart from that, you could also see added features in many of them. Therefore, try and check out those options first.
  • Don’t look past used gear – When it comes to music instruments like guitars, the items like effects pedals are often resold in mint or near-mint condition at a huge discount off the street price. In fact, in most cases, you can save around 30% off the street price on pedals and other gear. Therefore, it’s best to hold on for a bit and bargain a little to secure the best-quality instruments at the best price.
  • Bargain and make an offer – Just like buying a car, you can treat the “sticker price” as a place to begin the negotiation. Don’t be afraid to wheel and deal, and that includes new guitars and gear sold by traditional retailers. Research shows that users who make an offer end up saving around 15% off the sticker price.
  • Buy extra peace of mind – It’s normally extra to get insurance and require a signature on delivery, but it’s worth every penny to make sure that your piece of gear is covered. Many shippers offer automatic coverage at certain levels, so be sure to check their sites to know what you’re getting.
  • Use the feedback system –Buying from a private seller can sometimes feel risky, so make sure to ask for any feedback ratings that are available. Ask the seller to send you their feedback from reputable sites like eBay and/or to refer you to previous buyers.
  • Get lots of photos – Don’t settle for one or two grainy photos or none at all. Ask the seller to take the instrument outside and photograph it in natural light, without a flash. For vintage guitars, ask them to have the guitar disassembled so that all internal parts, date stamps, serial numbers, and any other relevant information can be photographed.
  • Get the story – Vintage guitars have lived a life of their own, and unless you ask you might never know that a guitar has travelled the world, been played on a famous record, or sat untouched in a closet for 30 years. Find out where the guitar has been. Was it used for gigging or mostly at-home use? Are there any cool stories about the instrument, such as famous owners?
  • Don’t settle for simple descriptions – Demand details about the condition of the guitar. Is the neck straight? How much wear is on the frets? Is there excessive buzzing or dead notes? Are the electronics quiet, or do they emit excessive or “scratchy” noise when adjusted? When was the last time the guitar was set up?
  • Know the return policy before you buy – It’s amazing how often returns come up, and more amazing how rarely they’re discussed before the transaction. Go the extra mile and get an e-mail from the seller agreeing to a return policy in writing.
  • Use a price guide – Buyers should always know ahead of time what they should be paying for a piece of gear. When shopping for a new guitar, check the going rate for a used one, and then use this information to negotiate. Check multiple sources like Gruhn’s, the Reverb Price Guide, and eBay’s Completed Listings.

There is an infinite range of musical instruments that you can learn to play online, however, some of them lend themselves more readily to self-teaching. Either way, you must be careful while selecting the ones for yourself. Stick to choosing the models that suit you the most are easy to learn if you’re a beginner. We hope the above tips and tricks guide you in the direction and help you choose the best among the lot.
