The Guitar Marketplace Reviews 

Guitar arrived immaculate, neatly set up, fresh strings etc | Communication was rapid | Packaging and everything just very very clean and proper!

I won a guitar on March 19th, it is now April 10th and I am STILL waiting for it to arrive. The guitar was pictured in their "showroom" but when I emailed they said it had to be ordered. The expected delivery date came and went. I emailed again and was assured it had been dispatched. Once again it is not here. The communication is EXTREMELY poor, with long delays for replies to emails.
It's such a shame as I've entered many competitions and was delighted to win. This guitar was going to be my son's birthday present, so he too is now disappointed.......well, heartbroken....that it has not arrived.

UPDATE - The guitar arrived on the 14th April. After investigation if appears 2 attempts were made to deliver it around the 2nd April. No idea why these were unsuccessful, I work from home and am here all day. The courier failed to communicate this to Ben or Matt at GuitarMarketplace, so they were unaware until I got in touch. Room for improvement on this it seems.

Great service

This week I won the Fender Vintera 60s Jazzmaster in blue. I was notified the next day after the draw that I had won it. Didn’t take long to deliver and it looks and plays great. This is a great site and is definitely worth giving it a go with one of there many draws. You don’t have to spend much to have a chance to win.

Ease of use when paying,loads of guitars & effects to choose from. Good prices too.

I’ve won several guitars on the guitar marketplace over the years. It’s a well run business, the guys are absolutely superb at what they do, delivery is always pretty quick. There’s no way I would own half the guitars I do if it weren’t for you guys. 10/10 from me.

Totally trustworthy company, I have won 3 guitars and other small wins from The Guitar Marketplace. Can highly recommend the guys!

Great product with really quick delivery. Guitar came set up perfectly with case and candy. Great to do business with.

What a great competition site!
I really enjoy the guitar market place competition site, there is a wide range of comps with varying prices to suit everyone. The live draws happen twice a week, which i always try to tune in for. I am also lucky enough to have won 2 guitars! Come along, play and have fun!

Won another amazing guitar. This company is run by hard working lads with a serious passion for guitars. Love the website and looking forward to getting lucky again one day with them.

*UPDATED*
So firstly, these guys are legit. I've won guitars and some smaller prizes from them (which is cool). The main issue is that the communication could be better.
I've won a guitar which came as promised and was lucky enough to win another guitar that weeks to arrive after much chasing.
Tunes out there was a supply issue and they did sort it out in the end, but an email informing me of the delay and an ETA would have saved much chasing and confusion.

They are nice guys and running a business is hard so if they just level up the comms it'd be a 5 star review.

I'll still enter draws as the chance to win a great guitar for a few quid is neat!

I have won both on Live draws and free auto draws. Great comp site and friendly guys to communicate with.

Very helpful, great prizes

If anyone doubts the validity of these competitions and whether anyone actually wins, I can tell you that you can win. I did. Don't get me wrong, it's unlikely you'll win every week, the odds will tell you that. I played various games over about a year. The amount I spent was less than the value of the guitar I won. So, I've done well. It's fun with the opportunity to win some really high end, grail guitars. I've also won a couple of their daily freebie comps over the year. These are available to those who play in their app. I won the guitar on a Monday and it was delivered the very next Friday. Good luck.

Well I can honestly say I had a very pleasant experience using this site. I have bought numerous tickets I mainly try my luck on the instant win competitions but occasionally join in on the live draws.

It just so happens my number finally came up, only having 2 tickets and I won an amazing Gibson Les Paul standard mod collection.

Received the congratulations email the following morning to confirm my details and was told the guitar would be posted the Thursday following the draw and the guitar was at my door Friday morning.

Overall a great experience and I’m one happy man now. Don’t let the 1* reviews put you off get involved it’s better odds than the lottery!

I’ve now had 5 big wins with TGM and I can genuinely say they’re a good company and trustworthy.

I’ve been lucky and had some great wins - ending up with guitars that I love, but couldn’t have justified buying outright.

I started 2026 planning on thinning out my collection, and because of TGM i’ve ended up with more.

I’ve had experiences across both the Instant Win games and the normal random draw system - for those of you out there who wonder how legit it is, it is. I used it once in May 2023, didn’t win anything. Came back October 2025 and won 999 tickets for a competition.

Since then, aside from the site credit wins I’ve won 4 guitars and a Neural DSP nano. Two of the guitars I absolutely love (PRS custom 24 2025, Epiphone J-200) and both arrived in perfect condition.

Two of the guitars I won in an instant win comp, weren’t my style and the staff were very accommodating and offered me alternatives for the same value.

There was a slight hiccup in one of the deliveries - but this was no fault of TGM, it was done to the couriers / factory that shipped the guitar, that being said Ben sorted it promptly.

Likewise Matt who dealt with the random draw win, was very helpful.

As I say, for anyone out there that’s in doubt - it’s the real deal.

I’ll continue to be a customer (i’m in for two draws this evening) - Where else in the world could you get a guitar worth over £2k for the price of a ticket?!

Won a Gibson Les Paul Bass in one of their prize draws. I was informed immediately after the draw ands I received the bass 3 days later. Great friendly correspondence. I would recommend entering their prize draws as they limit each draw which gives you better odds and the prize was exactly as described.

I’ve been buying tickets on The Guitar Market place for around a year now. I’ve always been a little sceptical about ticketed sites however, the odds on TGM are often to good not to have a go. I purchased tickets on 28th of December on the Joe Bonamassa, Epiphone 1962 reissue. On the 3rd of Jan I received the winners email!! Couldn’t quite believe it. My guitars was dispatched and received promptly. The guitar itself is stunning. I’d 100% recommend TGM, the odds are amazing. Give it a go.

Started playing competitions a few months ago, with the hope of winning a guitar for my son. The price of entry is low, and the odds of winning on some guitars are great. I unexpectedly had the winners email, to say I’d won a Gibson Les Paul. Over the moon. Arrived safely, and now has pride of place in my collection. Looking forward to hopefully winning again in the future. Great site, with great prizes.

I have been using this company for a couple years and they have always been professional with great interactions and prizes to be won.
I have recommended them to both friends & family.
I was lucky enough to win a guitar and it came quickly and the quality was mega!
An amazing company and it’s a treat every week to watch live and hopefully win!
