How long will my refund take?

Refunds are usually processed within 5-7 working days but please allow up to 14 working days for refunds to be credited into your account, from the day after this item arrives with us. 

If you have made this purchase via one of our finance options we will contact the finance provider to cancel your agreement. Any funds/deposit paid to the finance provider will be refunded by the finance provider directly.

 

My order has developed a fault after 30 days, what can I do?

All new items are supplied with a minimum three (3) year warranty.

Once the item(s) is returned through the Online Returns Portal, it will be assessed by an expert and if possible repaired in-house. 

If any part of this is not possible, the product will be returned to the supplier for assessment and repair.

It is not always possible to provide an ETA for warranty repairs but guitarguitar will do our utmost to obtain regular updates from the supplier or manufacturer, and will update you whenever we receive information on your repair. 

In most cases, goods returned under warranty are repaired rather than replaced. Where a repair is not possible, we will arrange a replacement on a like-for-like basis.

If issues with a product have been created due to misuse or neglect and discovered upon inspection, these will not be covered under warranty and we reserve the right to refuse a return on these grounds.

*It is your responsibility to inform us of any change of address or contact details before we return your item.  

Pre-Owned

All of our Pre-Owned Stringed Instruments are supplied with a one (1) year warranty.

Pre-Owned electronic goods, including but not limited to amplifiers, keyboards, pedals, digital drum kits, synths, P.A. systems etc, are supplied with a ninety (90) day warranty. 

Pre-Owned items have their warranty serviced by a qualified technician or member of staff. We may outsource repairs to a third party specialist where appropriate.

If we cannot resolve a fault with a Pre-Owned item during the warranty period we will offer a store credit at the value of the price of the goods at the time of sale.
