We are Very Nice Guitars , a group of passionate musicians who love great instruments.

The idea for Very Nice Guitars was born in our minds a long time ago. Back then, it lacked a specific name or location, but it had a crystal-clear vision of the sales model—we wanted to provide our customers with access to a wide selection of top-shelf instruments in excellent condition, at a fraction of the retail price. In 2019, this idea materialized, and a new spot for boutique instrument enthusiasts appeared on the map of Cracow, with the ambition of becoming the largest premium new and used guitar store in Europe.

Very Nice Guitars is not just our job; it’s our passion. Every single guitar we manage to track down for our customers brings us just as much joy as it does to them. Day in and day out, we scour global markets in search of the best deals, regularly bringing instruments from brands like Ibanez, ESP, Music Man, Jackson, Strandberg, Aristides, Mayones, Skervesen, Gibson, Fender, and many others to our shop. At the same time, we constantly expand our inventory with pieces from smaller but equally renowned manufacturers and boutique luthier workshops.

Throughout our time on the market, we have successfully established partnerships with many well-known brands. This has allowed us to expand our catalog to include brand-new instruments from makers such as Abasi Concepts, Dean, Skervesen, Ruf, Acacia, True Temperament, Freak Lab Guitars, and Nash Guitars. What's more, we are well on our way to significantly growing this roster in the near future.

Every guitar that comes through our doors must meet our strict standards and align with our philosophy—we are only interested in exceptional, top-tier instruments, both in terms of sound and craftsmanship. We place a particular focus on innovative and ergonomic guitars that utilize modern technological, acoustic, and material solutions.

Very Nice Guys

Wojtek

Hey! I’m Wojtek, I founded Very Nice Guitars because I love high-end modern guitars! I play in an alternative metal band called Syntetic Blast. I love Strandbergs, Aristides, Abasi, these kinds of guitars.

Maciek

Hi everyone, I’m Maciek, and my journey with Very Nice Guitars has been going on almost since the very beginning of the brand. If I spent as much time practicing the guitar as I do talking about them, I’d be a seriously good guitarist. Unlike the rest of the Very Nice Guitars crew, I’m not really familiar with heavier music genres, and I get excited every time an instrument with single-coil pickups lands in the shop. I love classic guitar shapes, but I also have a secret crush on headless instruments. My Ibanez AZ2402 IBM is the best guitar in the world and you won't change my mind, but feel free to try!

Mick

Hi, it’s Mick. In Very Nice Guitars I am responsible for social media content and overall graphic design. It allows me to put together two of my main passions, visual arts and guitars. As per my gear preferences it’s mainly oldschool stuff which my colleagues would probably call uncomfortable, buzzy and out of tune. If it’s old and japanese it will certainly fit my style. That doesn’t stop me from appreciating more modern instruments though, especially hand crafted boutique pieces.

Alex

Howdy, fellow guitar geeks! I’m Alex. I picked music as my ride-or-die career, so now I’m all about bein’ a guitar tech, playin’ gigs, and makin’ tunes. No complaints here, I’m lovin’ every minute of it! As for me, I like to write instrumental soundscapes mixin’ Ambient, Post-rock, and Prog metal vibes.

Michał

Hi, I’m Michał. I am with Very Nice Guitars from the very beginning. I’m mainly a bassist and pianist, though I play a little guitar once in a while. Just enough to be the undisputed laureate of our team's 'Worst Guitar Player' award. That doesn't stop me from appreciating good craftsmanship (and criticizing the bad), though! Outside of Very Nice Guitars, I play bass for Emberstoke, nerd out over science, and work as an IT technician (but who cares about that?). Musically, classic metal is my sweet spot, but I appreciate everything from The Beatles to Cannibal Corpse.

Budy

Hi! My name is Budy. At Very Nice Guitars I am responsible for our descriptions, video demos, as well as packing and sending ordered instruments. When I’m not at work, I play guitar for the band DISREASON. In contrast to my colleagues, I am not so fond of modern designs. Rather than a headless or multiscale guitar, I’d opt for a pointy shape such as a Flying V or an Explorer - however I will always find room for a nice Les Paul. I aim to specialize in the realm of ESP and Gibson, as those brands are the most interesting to me.

Sławek

Hi, my name is Sławek. I'm a teacher with a huge passion for music. I've been playing guitar my whole life and it's something I really enjoy. I like progressive metal and rock, and my favorite band is Dream Theater.
