01
You bring the story
Start with photos, a call, or a visit. Brand, model, condition, and what comes with it all help us understand the gear.
A real local gear shop
Good gear.
Keeps moving.
Music Go Round Louisville is where used instruments and gear get their next move: sell what you are done with, trade toward what is next, or find the piece that gets you playing again.
No appointment needed. Start with a visit, a call, or photos by text.
A local stop in a bigger circuit
Not a form.
A gear conversation.
Players. Bands. Studios. Schools.
Music Go Round has spent more than 30 years specializing in used musical instruments and music gear. The Louisville store brings that resale model to the people making music right here.
A person looks at what you bring in—there is no anonymous box, no automatic price, and no reason to pretend every piece has the same story.
The used-gear loop
Three moves.
Still moving.
02
We look at the real thing
An in-person review comes before a final purchase or trade discussion. Condition, completeness, and what the local market needs all matter.
03
The gear gets its next move
If it is a fit, you can sell it or put its value toward something else in the store. The used gear keeps circulating instead of sitting still.
How we look at used gear
The honest
version.
Every piece is individual.
A final offer depends on the actual item and an in-person review—not a photo alone or a generic online estimate.
No fake urgency.
Text photos when that is easiest. Bring it in when you are ready. There is no appointment required just to start the conversation.
Ask about the specific piece.
Used gear has a history. Ask in store about the condition, included accessories, and what has been checked on the item you are considering.
Straight answers
Before you
come by.
Where can I sell used music gear in Louisville?
At Music Go Round Louisville, 3640 S. Hurstbourne Parkway. The store buys quality used instruments and gear every day during store hours, and no appointment is needed. You can also start by texting photos and a few details to (502) 495-2199.
Do I need an appointment to sell or trade gear?
No. You can stop in during store hours, or start by texting photos and a few details to (502) 495-2199.
What kinds of gear do you buy?
Guitars, basses, amps, pedals, and effects; drums, cymbals, percussion, and hardware; keyboards, synths, digital pianos, and MIDI gear; band and orchestral instruments; and pro sound, recording, DJ, and live-sound gear.
Can I sell gear for cash or trade it toward something else?
Both are available. Sellers can be paid by cash, check, or digital payout, and trade or store credit gets you more value than a cash payout. Tell the team which direction you are thinking, and they can discuss the options after seeing the gear in person.
Do I need ID to sell gear?
Yes. Bring a valid photo ID when you sell. The store also takes a thumbprint with each purchase.
What should I bring with an instrument or piece of gear?
Bring the gear itself and the things that help tell its full story: power supplies, cases, cables, pedals, stands, mouthpieces, hardware, or other included accessories when they apply.
Will every item be a fit for the store?
No. The team reviews each item individually. Condition, completeness, current demand, and the store’s present needs help determine whether an item is a fit.
Do you buy broken, as-is, or project gear?
Occasionally. Non-working and project gear is reviewed case by case, so bring it in or text photos first.
Do you take gear on consignment?
No. The store buys gear outright or takes it in trade.
Can I shop used gear in person?
Absolutely. The store’s used inventory changes throughout the day, so a visit is the best way to see what is on the floor and talk with someone who knows the category.
Can I buy from the store online?
Yes. The store’s inventory is listed at musicgoround.com. Orders ship within the lower 48 states, or you can choose in-store pickup. The store does not hold items.
What is the return policy on used gear?
Used gear can be returned within 7 days. Refunds carry a 20% restocking fee, and exchanges or store credit have no restocking fee. Purchases made with a trade can be returned for store credit only.
Do you do setups or repairs?
Yes. The store does setups and some repairs. Ask in store about your instrument.
Do you sell new accessories?
Yes. The store carries new guitar accessories of all kinds, plus many pro audio accessories.
