In our shop, you'll find instruments in nearly all priceranges. You'll find a nice collection of instruments from Fender, Gibson, Martin etc.etc.... And yes, we are "ProShop dealer" for both Mesa/Boogie and Martin (also, we are a "Martin 1833 Shop"). And we represent Fender as a Custom Shop dealer.

As mentioned, we are musicians ourselves, and therefore we are aware of musicians demands for consistency and quality of their equipment. We back up every amp or instrument bought from us. If you need council or advise when looking for an instrument, please call. Special demands as f.ex. interest of vintage or custom gear?? We are happy to get involved. Our network of contacts is well renowned.

Above, a picture from a nice happening in our shop: Left, Trond Tufte - product manager M.I. playing a 1941 Martin 000-18, Egil Bjørnholdt with a 1931 Martin 000-28and at right, Gordon Fairminer (ex. Sweet, Javelins, England) with a nice 00-28 from 1914.

And then; another movie shot by a digitalcamera with "funny" sound and picture quality", revealing what Trond Tufte might do along with good friends. This is the band Dolphin Days, July 2007.
