Extended Warranties

The Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than our standard warranty or free warranties offered by other retailers and manufacturers.

The highlights of the Gear4music enhanced warranty service are:

• Warranty is extended for up to 10 years from the date of delivery

• Standard collection and delivery costs are included for the first two years (UK)

• Warranty is transferable if the item is re-sold

• Loan equipment will be provided if the product isn't repaired within 30 days

• Replacement equipment will be provided if the product isn't repaired within 60 days

• If it has not been used, the policy can be cancelled within 30 days, and at any time after that for a pro-rata discount

This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under The Consumer Contracts Regulations 2015.

Outlying Areas

For customers in some outlying areas of the UK (e.g. Isle of Man), the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and re-delivery transport costs. You will be able to see this price when you enter your address details during checkout.

Repair Timescales

If you return an item to us for repair, we will repair it as quickly as possible. If we are unable to repair your product within 60 days, then we will send you a replacement product.

Please Note:

All of our warranty policies exclude items that have become defective due to misuse, accidental damage or any reason other than manufacturer fault. If an item is found to be without fault on its return to Gear4music and is outside of any applicable money-back guarantee period, then we will return the item to you for a small charge. We also recommend that you insure your goods.
