About us

Put your next instrument purchase in the hands of the guys who know!

Guitars To Be Played has been serving the Nashville and Worldwide music community for 15 years. Owner Josh Ingram worked steadily as a professional touring musician based right here out of Nashville, TN. Though Josh has left the road behind to focus on Guitars To Be Played and on our sister event production company (Nashville Sound Rental), he still knows a good guitar when he comes across one.

The Guitars To Be Played team is filled out by a crop of enthusiastic musicians who help us keep a pulse on the gear that delivers in the real world and who lend their expertise to our sales and service experience. Joshua Ivey, Daniel Johnson and Jim Smith keep a steady stable of guitars in the building. We carefully setup every guitar that we sell and provide high-quality photos and meticulous descriptions so that you know exactly what you're getting even before you put your hands on it. And of course, we make sure it is packed safely and arrives at your door ready to play.

To put it succinctly: Sold by players. For players.
