Looking for a guitar but don’t have the funds to purchase a spanking-new model? Fender is now selling certified pre-owned guitars via the brand’s official Reverb shop.

What makes the certified pre-owned instruments stand out among other used guitars is that these guitars have been professionally inspected by Fender and come with a one-year limited warranty, all at a steep discount from the brand-new model.

“We’re excited to offer for the first time ever Fender Certified Pre-Owned guitars directly on Reverb,” stated Fender CEO Andy Mooney. “Pre-owned guitars have long been popular among players, particularly new players and collectors. Fender Certified Pre-Owned gives players of all levels the opportunity to own a quality instrument at an affordable price.”

He added, “Fender Certified Pre-Owned guitars represent not only a fantastic value — allowing players to purchase an instrument that is professionally inspected, backed by Fender, and sold at a discount — but an opportunity to support a more sustainable guitar industry, giving the instruments a second, third, or fourth life and participating in the circular economy.”

Fender’s new certified pre-owned shop is backed by legendary Chic guitarist Nile Rodgers, who stated, “Over the years, many of my very best creative tools were bought from other musicians and the secondary market. In fact, The Hitmaker was from a pawn shop in 1973. These guitars come with stories and history that just make them special. The fact that you can now buy pre-owned guitars from Fender means that you get the character and the affordability of pre-owned gear, plus Fender’s seal of approval.“
