The guitars that I sell at Rik's Guitar Heaven have varied backgrounds
and are considered either "USED" or factory "2nd".I purchase them from the largest instrument refurbishing center in the world and dealer certified technicians return them, in most cases, to like new condition.
One of the biggest questions I get asked is,
"What makes a guitar fall into the category of "USED"?"
This could be for any number of reasons. The most common issues are minor cosmetic blemishes, electronics that need to be repaired or replaced, hardware that needs to be repaired or replaced such as tuners, bridge saddles, etc or structural defects.
Because of this, a "USED" or "2nd" stamp is imprinted on the back of the headstock so that it can no longer be sold as new. This stamp protects the consumer as well as the manufacturer from dishonest retailers.
NOTE: I do not sell guitars with structural defects unless specifically
mentioned and, if I see a blemish, I will always describe
it in the listing and try to photograph it.
I work very hard to insure that I ship the very highest quality instruments possible.
The guitars are inspected 5 times before I get them.
For the most part I ship using FedEx.
As soon as I have a tracking number I will email you so that you will know the whereabouts of your purchase at all times.
I will provide feedback as soon as the buyer leaves feedback. In the rare occasion that something goes wrong with a purchase, please contact me.
Please give me a chance to make it right for you!
