From the reviews
Knowledgeable, and friendly. I was aloud to experience some fantastic vintage guitars. I would feel confident purchasing from Hanks .great experience 👍
This place is great. I went out of my way to stop by and I was glad I did. I've been wanting a certain type of guitar and Hanks Vintage Guitars had several. I was able to play a few - only to realize that it just wasn't for me. Few guitar shops have the inventory to enable such informed decision making.

Hank's is one of the best vintage guitar shops anyone is likely to find anywhere. Mark is a knowlegeable expert, as well as friendly and helpful. The selection and quality of vintage guitars equipment is outstanding, with frequent inventory turnover.
Selling or trading gear at Hanks Vintage Guitars
Hanks Vintage Guitars comes up for buying and trading used gear — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the trip go better. First, bring the whole package: the case or gig bag, the original tremolo arm or bridge parts, the paperwork if you have it — a complete rig is worth real money more than a bare instrument, and it saves the back-and-forth of "can you bring the case in?" Second, know that trade credit almost always beats the cash offer, usually by a healthy margin — if you're upgrading anyway, price your old gear as a trade against the new one before you take cash. Either way, expect the offer to be below what the gear sells for on the wall; the gap is the store's margin for setup, warranty, and sitting on it until the right buyer walks in.
