Our newest vintage and used guitars, basses, amplifiers, pedals, and studio gear—freshly acquired and ready to play. This collection is updated constantly as new instruments arrive, featuring one-of-a-kind pieces from Fender, Gibson, Martin, Marshall, Vox, and other iconic makers. Because our inventory is unique and moves quickly, availability can change daily—if you see something you love, don’t wait.
If you’re looking for real deals on quality vintage guitars, amps, pedals, cases, and parts, this is the place. Every item in this collection is priced to move — no gimmicks, no inflated numbers, just honest pricing on great gear from Mahar’s Vintage Guitars.
Some of these instruments and amps have been overlooked simply because of timing; others are here because we’d rather move them than let them sit. That doesn’t mean they aren’t great tools or interesting pieces of history — it just means we’ve adjusted the numbers to reflect the current reality of the market and the spirit of keeping things moving.
If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to add something special to your collection, or if you’re hunting for a gig-ready guitar or amp that won’t break the bank, this is the place to start. The inventory turns quickly, so check back often. When we say something is priced to move, we mean it.
January is a huge month for us, starting with the first vintage guitar show of the year - the California World Guitar Show in San Rafael, CA.
We'll have our biggest booth of the year as this is what I call our "home show". It is just short of a three-hour drive from the shop, so we bring the farm!
I'm ready to buy after a huge Holiday season. If you're from the area and your bringing something to sell, you owe it to yourself to look for us first - I always pay well! If you want to make a deal ahead of time, hit the button below and fill out the form on our Sell Your Vintage Guitar page. I'll get you an offer prior to our departure.
Come meet the guys who enable me to bring you the gear on the site. I'm bringing the entire team with me.
January continues with the California World Guitar Show, SoCal edition in Costa Mesa, CA.
We go big in Costa Mesa too, with a substantial booth full of gear.
