Why Buy a Pre-Loved Instrument?

Second hand instruments can be a more affordable entry point for beginners or a cost-effective way for seasoned players to add to their collection. The depreciation factor that affects all new purchases has already been accounted for, meaning you often get more instrument for your money. Some used instruments also develop additional qualities or tonal characteristics as they age, particularly with used guitars, where the wood's aging can enrich the sound.

 

Used Guitars

Used guitars offer a unique charm – primarily that of warmth. As a guitar is played, the components become worn which alters the sound, creating richer tones that differentiate the instrument from that of a new purchase. Vintage & pre-loved instruments are not just tools for making music; they're artifacts that tell stories, making them incredibly appealing to collectors and musicians.

Used Bass Guitars

Just like with used guitars, a pre-loved bass develops a unique sound as it’s used over many years resulting in a rich, resonant tone that can't be replicated. Our selection of used bass guitars are perfect for both beginner players looking to get into the rhythmical world of bass for an affordable price, and for seasoned veterans searching for a brand new addition to their collection.

Used Pianos & Keyboards

High-quality pianos and keyboards are usually bult to last, easily playing a central role within a musical arrangement for decades at a time. There’s no such thing as too old when it comes to a used piano, and at Fair Deal Music we are happy to offer a range of second hand pianos and keyboards ready to take your music to the next level. 

Used Guitar Pedals

One way musicians alter their sound is through guitar pedals. Metal genre music requires a heavy distortion to give a more aggressive appeal. The Boss MT-2 Metal Zone pedal is one of the most popular metal distortion pedals on the market, and buying it used can save you over £50.

Used Microphones

The best microphones on the market can be excessively expensive. Recording quality microphones can be over £1000, especially if they are studio quality valve condenser mics. A brand-new SE Electronics Z5600A Condenser Microphone can cost over £700, whereas you can currently purchase it second hand from Fair Deal Music for £299.

Choosing Pre-Loved Over New

Buying a second hand instrument is more than just a financial decision; it's a choice that affects the instrument's feel, sound, and connection to history. Many musicians argue that older instruments, especially used guitars, have a 'broken-in' feel that makes them more comfortable to play. The sound of a well-aged guitar is often described as more resonant and fuller, thanks to the wood maturing and settling over the years.

Why Choose Fair Deal Music?

Discover the charm and unique character of second hand instruments with Fair Deal Music. Each piece carries its own story, offering a blend of rich history and authentic sound that only time can bestow. Whether you’re a seasoned musician or just starting your musical journey, choosing a pre-owned instrument from Fair Deal Music means accessing premium quality at an unbeatable value. Our well-curated selection ensures that every instrument has been meticulously checked and tuned by experts, ready to deliver its best performance on stage or in your living room.
