Ordering and delivery

The site shows a cart and a Checkout page, so orders are placed through the website. One delivery detail is stated plainly on the site: spend over £199 for FREE delivery. The excerpt does not specify which regions that applies to beyond a reference to mainland UK, so if your delivery address is outside the mainland UK, confirm the cost with the shop before ordering.

To order online you need an account: the site offers Log in / Register, with a password reset option if you've forgotten yours. Registration uses your email address and password, and the site states your personal data will be used to support your experience on the website, manage account access, and for other purposes set out in their privacy policy.

Practical tips before you call or visit

• Check stock first. The product range is wide and includes used and clearance items, which move quickly. A quick call on 01202 718886 saves a wasted trip.
• Ask about servicing turnaround. If you're bringing a guitar in for work, phone ahead to check current lead times.
• Selling a guitar? Use the "We Buy Any Guitar!" route rather than the general contact form, so your enquiry reaches the right person.
• Delivery threshold. If your basket is close to £199, it may be worth adding strings or picks to cross it — but only if you actually need them.
• Opening hours are limited to daytime. With a 5pm close Monday to Saturday and no Sunday hours listed, plan around work hours if you're travelling to the shop.
