Sell to Us · Fullerton
Sell vintage in Fullerton, the town that built the Stratocaster.
Fullerton is holy ground for one category above all: guitars. Leo Fender built his first instruments here, and the town’s garages and back bedrooms have been quietly holding electric guitars, amps, and parts ever since. A dusty case under a Fullerton bed is always worth opening, and we are exactly the buyers to open it with.
Free visit · cash offers · no obligation
Beyond the guitars, Fullerton is a craftsman bungalow town with a college, which means good furniture, deep bookshelves, and record collections that were assembled with intent. We buy across all of it, at your home, with cash and a straight explanation of every number.
What Fullerton is famous for, and what it hides
Guitars and amps
Fender above all, vintage Gibson, lap steels, tube amps, and cases of parts. Running or not.
Music ephemera
Catalogs, dealer signage, photographs, and anything tied to the early Fender story.
Craftsman furnishings
Mission oak, art pottery, and lighting from the bungalow neighborhoods near downtown.
College-town collections
Books, records, cameras, and the careful accumulations of academic households.
Full estates
Complete household contents from Golden Hill to Raymond Hills, one offer, one visit.
Open the case before anyone else does
Real talk about old guitars: the difference between a 1960s Fender and a 1980s reissue is thousands of dollars, and the markers are subtle: neck stamps, pot codes, finish details. Do not let a yard-sale buyer flip the latches first. We evaluate instruments in front of you, explain what the codes mean, and pay what the instrument actually is. From downtown to Sunny Hills, the house call is free.
A Recent Find
A 1940s Levi’s Type 1 jacket, sold to us by a former dealer who knew exactly what he had. We paid $12,000 in cash, the same day.

Common questions
The guitar has not been played in decades and strings are missing. Still valuable?
Possibly very. Originality beats condition in vintage instruments: untouched and dusty is better than refinished and shiny. Bring us to the case before anyone cleans or repairs anything.
How can you tell what year a guitar is?
Serial numbers, neck date stamps, potentiometer codes, and construction details cross-checked against each other. We do this work in front of you and show you exactly what we are reading.
Do you buy amps, pedals, and parts too?
Eagerly. Tube amps from the 50s-70s are a strong market of their own, and drawers of parts, pickups, and hardware from old repair benches are worth real money.
