Use this form when you are considering a used electric, acoustic, classical, or bass guitar and want Gannon Luthier Services to evaluate condition, playability, repair risk, and likely setup needs.

The more accurate the information and photos are, the more useful the inspection review can be. A hands-on inspection is always more reliable than photos alone.

Important: This request form does not guarantee that a guitar is worth buying. It starts the inspection process. Final recommendations depend on photos, seller information, and/or a hands-on inspection.
