5. Why do most of your acoustic guitars not have pickups?
The first step in choosing the right instrument is finding one that sounds amazing on its own, without amplification. Some players prefer using a microphone rather than installing a pickup, preserving the guitar’s pure acoustic tone. However, if you require amplification, a non-invasive pickup system—such as LR Baggs, Fishman, or K&K—can deliver a natural acoustic sound to your PA system. Opting for an aftermarket pickup gives you flexibility, allowing you to choose the best system for your needs and upgrade as technology advances.
6. How do I buy from Guitar Gallery?

7. Can Guitar Gallery help me to sell my high end Guitar?
We are passionate about high-end guitars and committed to being your trusted partner, including assisting you in selling your exceptional instrument. While we don’t buy guitars, we can help you find the right buyer at the right price while minimizing risks.
The high-end guitar market is highly niche, and general online platforms may not reach the right audience. Guitar Gallery has built a growing community of enthusiasts who appreciate brands like Martin, Gibson, Collings, Santa Cruz, Bourgeois, Lowden, Taylor, and Fender. We continuously optimize our website and run targeted ads to ensure maximum visibility for your guitar.
If you’re looking to sell a high-end guitar, contact us—we’ll help you secure the best deal possible.
