Did you know that different people have different definitions when it comes to what qualifies as a vintage guitar? To many, any guitar that is at least 20 years old is a vintage guitar, while others set 30 years as the standard. However, some purists think that a guitar is only considered "vintage" if it's from the 1980s or before...and some go even further back to the 1970s.


It doesn't really matter which definition you choose when it comes to vintage guitars -- all you could be wondering is how much you can sell your vintage guitar for, or alternatively, how much you'll have to spend to buy one, if you're in the market.


The simple answer to your question is yes -- vintage guitars do have value. Of course, that depends on who you ask, which guitar you're talking about, what kind of shape the guitar is in, and so on. If you have one or more vintage guitars that you're interested in selling, visit us at Hilltop Pawn in Virginia Beach first -- we would love to buy your guitar, and we pay top dollar. Plus, it really couldn't be easier. Have questions? Stop in and chat with our friendly staff, or give us a call at 757-769-7254 today!
