Purchase of Pre-owned Instruments
Ignite the joy of music – that's our mission. We love instruments and we love sustainability. There are many reasons to stop playing an instrument. But even more reasons to pass your former treasure on to good hands.
Musik Hug buys high-quality pre-owned instruments, which are then lovingly refurbished to continue their musical mission. Don’t wait too long — as instruments age or remain unused, even storage damage can occur.
We are currently interested in high-quality instruments from the following categories:
- Pianos and grand pianos
- String instruments, especially violins and cellos
- Wind instruments
- Guitars
Unfortunately, we cannot purchase the following:
- Digital pianos
- Drum sets
- Orchestral percussion
- Accessories of any kind (electronics, music stands, bags)
- Children’s sizes / student instruments
- Small instruments such as harmonicas, melodicas, cajóns, ukuleles
- Vinyl records and CDs
To pass on such instruments or accessories, we recommend placing an ad on one of the common Swiss second-hand marketplaces like Tutti or Ricardo.
