Return Policy

We do understand your concern about buying of expensive instruments when you are not able to visit the shop to play and feel the guitars. That is why we will take the risks out of the buying process. We provide the best possible information and answer any question you might have. Also, upon request we provide additional videos, pictures and sound samples to your specific needs. At Diamond Guitars you can order instruments with complete confidence!

Whether you wish to buy a new or used instrument, we focus on a hassle-free and risk-free purchase. Most online ordered guitars can be returned without reason within 14 days after reception and are therefore subject to our ‘Money-Back Guarantee’. Check the exclusions below.

Returns

The goods must be returned to Diamond Guitars in an orderly condition, without any signs of wear and tear, free from all third-party claims at the costs and risk of the customer. You must contact us for a return authorization. The goods are to be sent to the following returns address:

1098NA Amsterdam

The refund will be carried out within 14 days after returning the instrument. A refund is only made if the goods are in the same condition as they left the shop. The right of return may be refused, if there are any marks, scratches, or stains etc. which cannot be removed. Alternatively, the refund will be adjusted accordingly.

Return shipping costs

Return shipping costs are for the customer to pay and listed below:
