EnglishWhat Kinds of Guitars and Music Gear Can You Buy from Guitar Mania?
Updated
Guitar Mania is a Bournemouth-based music shop whose online catalogue covers electric, acoustic, classical, bass and left-handed guitars, plus amplifiers, effects, accessories, strings, headphones and PA equipment. It suits buyers in mainland UK who want a mix of well-known brands, budget options and used gear from one retailer — and delivery is free on orders over £199.
Guitar categories stocked
The site organises guitars into these main groups:
- Electric guitars — with brand sub-sections for Fender, Squier, Gibson, Ibanez, Jackson, PRS, Vintage, Gretsch and Northstar, plus an "Other brands" section
- Acoustic guitars — including Taylor, Fender Acoustic, Gretsch Acoustic, PRS Acoustic and Tanglewood Acoustic
- Classical guitars
- Basses
- Left-handed guitars
- Beginners and Budget Guitars — a dedicated entry-level category
- Ukulele / Banjo / Mandolin
So if you are choosing between, say, a Squier electric for a first setup and a Taylor acoustic for a step up, both sit inside the same shop rather than across separate specialist retailers.
Amps, effects and accessories
Beyond guitars, the catalogue includes:
| Category | What's listed |
|---|---|
| Amplifiers | Electric guitar amps, acoustic guitar amps, bass amps, used amps |
| Effects & Pedalboards | Effects pedals, used effects pedals, pedalboards & power |
| Accessories | Headphones, slides/capos, stands and hangers, scratchplates, amp covers, guitar care, cases & bags, pickups, straps, spare parts, cables, tuners |
| Strings & Picks | Electric, bass, acoustic, classical, banjo and ukulele string sets, single strings, picks and plectrums |
| PA – Mixers – Mics | PA and live-sound equipment |
| Books | Music books |
A current example from the "New In" section is the Taylor 117e Special Edition in Dark Tobacco Burst with gigbag, alongside Fender HD7 professional monitoring headphones — showing the shop mixes instruments and general gear in the same new-arrivals feed.
Used, clearance and gift sections
Three sections are worth knowing about if price is a factor:
- Sale & Clearance — discounted stock
- Used & Pre Loved — second-hand instruments and gear, including a separate used effects pedals and used amplifiers section
- Christmas Gift Ideas and Vouchers — gift-oriented items
There is also a Warehouse Direct category, which sits alongside the budget guitar range.
Services beyond retail
The shop also lists We Buy Any Guitar!, Servicing, Guitar Teachers and Jobs as pages, so it is not purely a product catalogue — you can trade in, arrange servicing, or find teacher listings.
Practical details before you buy
- Opening hours: Monday to Saturday, 9.30am to 5pm
- Phone: 01202 718886
- Delivery: free on orders over £199 (mainland UK)
- Account: you can browse and add to cart without logging in, but checkout and order management use a registered account
If you want a single UK retailer covering a first electric, a mid-range acoustic, strings, a pedalboard and a practice amp, Guitar Mania's category structure supports that in one order. If you need a specific high-end or niche model, check the relevant brand sub-section first, since stock is organised by brand rather than by a single "all guitars" list.
