Dear Friends, Collectors & Guitar Lovers,
As the undisputed global number one for the examination, validation, and authentication of rare and signed guitars, we have decided it is time for us to turn the page. After 20 incredible years of handling some of the world's rarest instruments, we are shifting our energy entirely toward master-level expertise, high-end gear, and top-tier collections.
The guitar and autograph landscape has changed significantly, facing an unprecedented influx of highly sophisticated counterfeits on various websites such as Ebay, Etsy and many more, that we are seeing on a daily basis. Our duty shifts from ordinary transactions to elite market defense. We will dedicate our accumulated decades of expert knowledge to rigorous forensic examination, protecting serious collectors from systemic forgery and safeguarding the integrity of music history.
In doing so, we draw a definitive line against the shallow, industrialized authentication standards of volume-driven corporations such as PSA/DNA, BECKETT BAS, SPENCE AUTHENTICATION and some more. A legendary, signed instrument cannot be evaluated on a corporate conveyor belt by generalists. It requires absolute authority.
While we will gradually phase out standard retail sales over the coming year, we are absolutely not closing our doors. Instead, our physical showroom is being upgraded to exclusively house an elite, highly curated selection of extremely high-value guitars and premium gear.
Thank you for your trust over the last two decades. The standard retail era ends here, but our defense of the world's finest signed instruments has just begun...
