That is why when we buy, sell and trade musical instruments and accessories we make variety a priority. From folk band to school band to rock band, come in and browse our offerings.

Do you have any dulcimer?
We often do have dulcimers, but I don’t know if the Bookmans nearest you has one. We don’t have an electronic inventory to track musical instruments. Please feel free to call your store directly or you could also e-mail your request (please allow additional time for e-mail responses).
Hey,
Do you have any used lefthanded Telecaster guitars?
Thanks,
Mark
Hey Mark, I sure hope we do. Unfortunately, we don’t have an electronic inventory, so I don’t know if our stores have one. If you contact a store directly, they will check their shelves for you. You can also contact our musical instrument repair shop to see if they know of any about to go onto the sales floor and if so they will be able to transfer the guitar to the Bookmans location of your choice.
Would you happen to have any USB interfsces?
Hey there! Your best bet is to call your local/nearest Bookmans. All of the stores vary in what they carry and buy/sell/trade, but any one of the awesome people can browse the store and check to see if a particular location has a USB interface for sale. Hope this helps!
Do you tune classical guitars? If so, what do you charge?
Hi Lynn, I’m attaching the link to our musical instrument repair shop page and their phone number, because your best bet is to call them directly and they can answer all of your questions with better knowledge. Hope this helps and that you get your guitar tuned! 🙂 520-449-1722
do you have ukuleles?
Hi Crystal, we sure do, and at every location. We have crazy cool colored ones and the simple classic ukes. Come see us! Bookmans.com/stores
Do you have any accoustic guitars with pick up and eq in it? Looking for an accoustic I can plug into an amp.
Hey Joe. Unfortunately we don’t have an online inventory for me to investigate the availability of any particular item. Your best bet it to call one (or all) of our stores and check in with someone there. We can always put things on hold for you, if we have what you are looking for. I hope this helps and that you find a sweet guitar! (We always have a number of really great guitars and other musical instruments – so I bet you’ll find something you love!)
Do you have any ukulele’s?
Almost always. If you want to be 110% certain just give them a call – all the info can be found at bookmans.com/stores. I’d say because it’s the holiday season it’s best to double check but each of our stores tries to keep their ukulele tree full 🙂
Hi I wanted to know if you have any drum kits for sale.
The best thing for you to do will be to call your local Bookmans – unfortunately we do not maintain a digital inventory for me to look into that for you.
tryin to sell a madera 6 string acoustic gituar new strings built in tuner 35o oo
wanting to buy a tackamine 6 string at a reasonable price
For both your buying and selling questions you will need to contact your local store directly to see if they have what you’re looking for in stock (as we do not maintain a digital inventory) and to see if they can provide you any sort of quote as we can’t online and there’s no guarantee that they will be able to give you more information than I can until they see the guitar in person. So sorry. The stores info can be found at bookmans.com/stores.
Do you guys offer a lay-a-way plans on your iinstruments? I’m looking to purchase a saxophone soon.
BiLLBoY
Hi Billyboy, we don’t offer layaway plans, but you can use trade credit to buy anything in our stores. Consider trading in some of your books, music movies and more to put trade credit towards your purchase of the saxophone. Here is more info about the trading process: http://bookmans.com/about/buy-sell-trade-at-bookmans/ Please let us know if you have any further questions.
Hello.. I’m either needing to have my step-daughter’s violin bow repaired or buy another one she has a Skylark violin that she’s wanting to start playing. Are you able to fix bows or would it be cheaper just to buy a used one I don’t need anything fancy like I said she’s just learning. Thank you and looking forward to hearing back from you
Hi Scott, we do repair bows. The repair would cost $45-60. Unless the bow is a really nice one that you would want to hold on to, it might be best to purchase a new one, which we do sell in stores. Thanks for reaching out!
am looking for quality USA made ukes?
Thank you for reaching out, Mick! We welcome comments so that we can communicate with our customers all around the state (and beyond.) When it comes to store inventory, it is always better to call your nearest Bookmans location, the directory is bookmans.com/stores. We don’t have a digital inventory, so your local store will know exactly what’s in stock. We also offer the option of calling any store and requesting that a product be transferred to your local Bookmans so that you can pick it up. Please feel free to contact me with any other questions at katys@bookmans.com. Thank you!

Do you buy guitars with only 3 strings? thank you!
Bookmans loves musical instruments (even those that have three strings!), but the only way to see if your local Bookmans is interested in your particular guitar is to take it into the store’s trade counter or to give them a call and ask them if they would like to take a look at it. Thanks!
whyo buys rockband harmonix guitars or wii wheels
Hello Sherri,
Since each Bookmans store monitors its own inventory and decides which items is it accepting, you would have to call your local store/s to ask if they are interested in the Rockband Harmonix guitars and Wii wheels or you can bring them in and have a Bookmans buyer take a look. Thanks!
