Default Best shope to consign a Fuch guitar in the US

Don't know if this is the appropriate forum to post this in or not:

Anybody have a recommendation for the best US shop to consign a Furch Vintage 2 OM SR. The guitar is mint.

Thanks

I've had very good results with Will at Lowe Vintage in Burlington, NC. It's a small shop with a big following and Will is great to deal with. Best of luck!

Why not just put it in the classifieds here.? Lots of Furch owners, and want to be owners who I’m sure would be interested.

Might depend on where you are. I like Gryphon and Schoenberg's out here on the coast. If you have an industrial-strength vintage guitar, perhaps Steve Swan.

Another vote for Lowe Vintage. Just dropped my latest with them last Thursday. They are great folks and it's a wonderful store.

If so, I’m surprised. I’ve seen several Furch guitars on the classifieds that did not last long.

Hands down.....Carter Vintage in Nashville....more guitarists picking more notes than ants on a TN anthill in Nashville

It’s listed here at a fair price, considering what you get. Unfortunately Furch do not demand the same resale value as …..Martin, Collings, Gibson etc…. So fair is viewed as not great, or overpriced.

I would find out what the consignment fee is for some of the shops mentioned, and split the difference between the listed price and what you would take home with a consignment sale. …IMHO

Brickhouse Guitars sells a lot of Furch, including used.
