Lately, the daily news bulletins have been full of horror stories regarding shares, real estate and the whole financial sector. In the meantime, quality vintage guitars continue to prove to be a rock-solid investment. Forget the negative returns of your superannuation scheme! Invest your tax refund privately and sensibly, and have fun on the way!

Leo the resident tone hound (he's a 5yo Beagalier) welcomes you to Grouse Guitars, the 'virtual vintage guitar store' where you navigate with vintage amp knobs (use the site map if the knobs aren't your thing). You will find Grouse Guitars to be an ethical and user-friendly vintage and rare guitar, bass and amplifier dealer - see our About Us page. And yes, we can lay-by or hold an item for you!

Grouse Guitars has evolved from my passion in playing and collecting great guitars, basses and amplifiers, with a particular fondness for vintage Australian amplifiers (Moody, Ultratone, Goldentone, Vase, Eminar, Vadis and more) which have until recently been vastly under-recognised.

I am at a stage of my life where I am winding down my workload to enable me to give more attention to other creative pursuits, and leaving the city (Melbourne) for a much quieter life in the bush, so I am presently not buying or trading any new stock. However, other than a very few items listed as not for sale, all my collection is for sale, so please enjoy browsing the site at leisure and see if there's something that may just be what you're looking for. Also, check out the workshop clearance items being listed day by day on eBay (see column to right) - I can't believe what I'm finding in the deep, dark recesses!
