Approaching thirty years of experience buying, restoring and maintaining vintage gear – initially for Tony’s studio, and latterly for Soundgas – has informed the ethos that is at the heart of what we do. We are musicians and gear enthusiasts first and foremost, and understand how to deliver exceptional service to our customers.
From the excitement and inspiration that comes from choosing the right piece for your sound and workflow, to the gear becoming part of your studio/set-up, we’re here to support you on your creative journey.
And, as we grow, we’re able to use our resources and expertise to help others through our social media and the growing collection of Resources on the site, and our Giving Impacts.
Vintage Gear That Works
I used to find buying vintage gear was like a lottery: sometimes you got lucky and the item arrived as described, but often this wasn’t the case. Too many delicate synths got damaged due to poor packing or careless couriers. I sent a flightcase for a seller to ship my mint Juno 60, but he left the mains plug loose inside, which dented the pristine front panel and cracked the arpeggiator board. Finding the right tech to service or repair old gear was always tricky, but today it’s become near-impossible.
