description Reverb Overview

Reverb facilitates the buying and selling of musical instruments and related gear through a global online platform. It’s notable for its focus on specialist equipment and fostering a community of musicians exchanging used goods. The marketplace serves both individual buyers seeking vintage or affordable instruments and sellers looking to responsibly trade their music-related items.

help Reverb FAQ

What kinds of gear is Reverb mainly used for?

Reverb focuses on musical instruments and music gear: guitars, pedals, amps, synths, microphones, studio equipment, and parts. It is much more specialized than a general marketplace like eBay.

Who founded Reverb?

Reverb was founded in 2013 by David Kalt, who had also bought Chicago Music Exchange. The marketplace grew around new, used, and vintage music gear.

Did Etsy own Reverb?

Yes. Etsy acquired Reverb in 2019 in a deal reported at about $275 million, which is one reason many musicians noticed the platform beyond guitar forums.
