The reSound Advantage
Unlike traditional marketplaces that charge exorbitant fees, reSound offers a fair and transparent solution. With a mere 2% payment processing fee, you can sell your gear without worrying about hidden costs or upfront charges. This means more money in your pocket and a more enjoyable selling experience.

With a focus on accessibility and affordability, reSound aims to empower musicians of all ages to find their unique sound.
Lee Alexander, Co-Founder and CRO of reSound. Lee is a guitar enthusiast with extensive experience in the music industry and co-founded reSound.

Working fairly with musicians
By connecting reputable retailers and individual sellers, reSound curates a marketplace that features a diverse selection of unique instruments. Unlike large, generalist marketplaces, reSound ensures that rare finds are not overshadowed, giving musicians access to a much broader range of instruments that are often difficult to locate and even more challenging to purchase
While other platforms like Reverb and eBay impose up to 8% seller fees, reSound offers a more cost-effective solution with a 2% payment processing fee.
This means sellers can keep more of their earnings.

Guitar Bomb Verdict
Evan Michaels and Lee Alexander certainly have the right idea, and I expect the site to grow over the coming year.
With low-cost fees, a secure platform, and an engaged community, they are committed to making the selling process as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
As a musician who has bought and sold music equipment for decades, I hope this new site will grow and give musicians a great place to sell their gear. The current major players are all becoming greedy with fees, which has discouraged many people from using these large sites.
