Selling Your Vintage and Used Instruments

We pay top dollar  for vintage musical instruments, more than any other St. Louis shop, and pride ourselves on our honest and transparent appraisal process.

Send pictures to 314-285-1904 or driftwoodmusicshop@gmail.com and we can get the process started without you having to leave your home.


Whether you are an experienced collector or inherited an instrument you know nothing about, we treat everyone with respect and dignity and give you the best price.

Our appraisal process is not done in secret but is done with you and in plain view. We will walk you through our process of examining the instrument for condition, our market value research, and our final evaluation and offer. When we say we will sell an instrument for a specific price, you can expect to find that number on the tag and on our site.

Rest assured you will get the best value and St. Louis’ best service here
