Is My Item In Stock?
All products on our website are in stock and available for immediate dispatch unless shown as Pre-Order or Out of Stock. If the item is in stock we can deliver your order to you very quickly, subject to full payment authorisation.
There is a handy timer on each product page to let you know when you need to order by to get your item dispatched the same day. If you miss the cut-off time then your order will be dispatched the following day.
Pre Orders
Pre-ordering an item that is out of stock is generally the quickest and easiest way to ensure you reserve yourself the item from our next incoming shipment. Pre-orders are usually fulfilled within 7 days, it can be much quicker than this and also it could take longer, each item can take a different amount of time to reach us from our suppliers. Do not hesitate to contact us if you would like to know a more accurate ETA for your order.
Out Of Stock
If an item is out of stock and not available for pre-order it could mean that:
- We don't know when the next shipment will be
-The item is no longer available to order
- We don't offer pre-orders on this item (generally smaller things like strings & picks)
If you would like to enquire about an item that is out of stock please contact us and we'll be more than happy to assist.
All Guitars Are Checked Before Dispatch
All guitars go through our 12 point checking procedure to make sure that it passes our standards before shipping. This helps ensure your guitar will reach you in perfect condition.
All guitars are checked against our 12 point checklist and once passed, have a Guitarbitz quality control sticker attached.
In addition to this, we want to ensure that no harm can come to your guitar on the journey between us and you and so we have a rigorous packing procedure involving multiple protective layers.
If you notice that this packaging is damaged when delivered by our courier, it is important to check the goods and if damaged, refuse the delivery and call us immediately.
For your peace of mind, we have outlined the
12 Point Check Procedure to show how we are passionate about your instrument.
