What is a Demo? A demo model is a guitar that has spent some time in our showroom. Other than it having been in someone's hands, or hanging on a rack for a brief period of time, it's as good as new, at a great savings! We treat demo models the same as all other new guitars, each one is fully inspected, and cleaned up thoroughly before they are sold. Demos come with our standard three day no questions asked inspection period, as well as full manufacturers warranty.
