2nd hand guitar ?

Currently looking to buy an electric guitar, Amp, and audio interface.

Few music stores I've been to don't have any guitars under 10k baht for some reason. I guess thai people like expensive guitars… Currently looking to buy an electric guitar, Amp, and audio interface.

Few music stores I've been to don't have any guitars under 10k baht for some reason. I guess thai people like expensive guitars ?

Anyway, can someone help me find a second hand guitar shop or suggest a store that may sell something within my budget ?

I only want to spend 10k to 15k total for the guitar + Amp and interface.

Thank you for your time.

10k for all three is tight but doable if you dont mind hunting. Check out the guitar shops on Khao San Road, not the tourist ones but the little hole-in-the-wall places tucked in the alleys. Ive seen some decent Squier strats and used Vox amps for around 5-7k each, then grab a cheap Behringer interface online for 2-3k. Also try the weekend market at Chatuchak, there's a few stalls in section 4 that sell used gear, usually cheaper than the main stores

honestly try facebook marketplace or the "Guitars for sale Thailand" groups, tons of people selling full beginner setups for like 8-10k. also check out Fortune Town near Rama 9, theres a whole floor of music shops and some have used gear bins in the back, saw a Yamaha Pacifica for 4k there last month

check out the classifieds on bahtsold or craigslist bangkok, lots of expats selling gear when they move out. sometimes you get a whole bundle for cheap

best som tam in Bangkok? Krua Dok Mai Kao 2026

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
