Make Money Renting Out Your Guitar and Amp
Most guitar players own more instruments than they regularly play. That spare electric, the amp in the closet, the acoustic that comes out twice a year — all of it can earn while you're not using it.
Who rents guitars and amps?
- Touring and gigging musicians who flew in light
- Beginners trying before they buy
- Students and hobbyists needing a temporary instrument
- Studios and bands needing a specific tone
A quality guitar paired with an amp makes an especially attractive rental.
Earning potential
Guitars rent for $15–$40 a day; amps and premium instruments add more. The bookings may be occasional, but with little effort and almost no wear, it's close to free money from gear you already own.
Rent it out smartly
- Bundle a guitar with an amp and cable
- Note the make, model, and condition
- Include a case for safe transport
