If you’ve never heard of PawnGuru, we’re glad you found us—and you will be, too! We will be saving you tons of research into acoustic guitar pawn prices and other pawn information.
Essentially, we provide a free online space for pawn customers and sellers of used goods to list their acoustic guitars and other items for sale. When you create a free listing for your instrument on PawnGuru, your nearby pawn shops will be alerted to your listing. The pawn shops interested in your specific acoustic guitar will contact you online to make a cash offer.
This means that you get the chance to receive multiple offers for your acoustic guitar from interested pawn shops in your local area. This is an important benefit of using PawnGuru, as not all pawn shops will take acoustic guitars or other musical instruments. PawnGuru eliminates the need to do manual research on which pawn shops in your area take acoustic guitars, as well as which ones will give you the best offer.
Pretty awesome, right?
PawnGuru allows you to compare all local pawn shop offers on your acoustic guitar in one space, all without needing to leave your home to do the research.
