Where to sell second hand music instruments in Berlin?
This is the first time I have this experience I cannot sell something and I started to wonder if there could be some peculiarities for the second hand market for music instruments.
Thanks in advance for any ideas or tips 🙌
honestly at this point i'd try reverb's local pickup option, it's what a lot of berlin musicians use when kleinanzeigen fails you. you can set the listing to "pickup only" and filter by berlin, plus the buyer pays through the platform so no cash hassle. also might be worth hitting up the schwarze halle in neukölln on a saturday, they have a flea market section where people sell gear directly and you just pay a small fee for a table.
Have you tried giving it to a local music shop on commission? Places like Just Music or Session Music in Kreuzberg will often sell used gear for you and take a cut, way less hassle than dealing with flakes on Kleinanzeigen.
if you're open to a bit of a gamble, try posting on the berlin musician facebook groups instead of marketplace. there's one called "berlin musicians wanted" and another "second hand music gear berlin" - way less bots than kleinanzeigen, people actually show up. also check out the notice board at sound & music in friedrichshain, they let you pin a flyer for free and a lot of local teachers browse there. worst case hit up a rehearsal space like üben üben in wedding and ask if they know anyone looking for a cheap guitar, the staff usually knows the regulars
i'd say skip the big names and look at studiowest in prenzlauer berg, they do amazing japanese style but the waitlist is like 6 months. if u want something quicker, the artists at bitterlich tattoo in mitte are super underrated, especially for fine line. and honestly, walk past the instagram hype, go to a shop in person and ask to see their portfolio book, that's where the real stuff is.
The Berlin tattoo scene is pretty spread out, so it depends on what style you're after. For fine line and minimalist work, I'd look at A Fine Line in Kreuzberg, they're booked out weeks in advance for a reason. If you want bold traditional, check out Die Wilde Ecke in Neukölln, they've been around forever and the artists there are solid. Honestly, your best bet is to scroll through Instagram and find someone whose healed work you like, not just the fresh photos, because that's where the real skill shows.
One thing nobody's mentioned yet is the tattoo convention at Arena Berlin, usually in early summer. It's a good way to see a bunch of styles in one afternoon and talk to artists face to face without committing to a shop. I found my guy there three years ago, he works out of a tiny studio near Boxhagener Platz and does amazing neo-traditional, but he rarely posts on Instagram so you'd never discover him otherwise. Bring cash if you go, a lot of the booths only take that on the day.
