Used Electric Guitar: Getting the Best DealA used electric guitar can be an excellent value either for your first guitar, or to add to your collection. Buying used can save you a lot of money -- you can let the first owner pay full price, and then you get a big discount on a "previously owned" instrument.There are three main things to look out for in buying a previously-owned guitar: condition, price, and confidence in the seller. The best way is to buy directly from a friend. That way you can play the guitar, and have knowledge about how the guitar was cared for. A local guitar shop is also a good choice because of the service available, although prices will be higher. Perhaps the best way to buy a used electric guitar is to use online auction sites such as eBay. This way you can get access to a much larger number of choices, and also have the possibility of getting a great deal. The downside is not being able to inspect or play the guitar unless the seller happens to be local. However, by carefully evaluating seller feedback ratings and using buyer protection rules, you can generally buy via online auction with confidence.
