Unbolted: Your specialist pawnbroker
Pawn your musical instruments for a short-term loan.
Music is an artistic form of sound communication produced by special instruments and is an integral part of human culture. The earliest known instruments were made from animal bones and would best be described as a flute.
Whether you are a musician in the London Symphony Orchestra, play backup to Pharrell Williams or teach music from your home, Unbolted can look after your short term borrowing needs. Unbolted are experts in pawning whatever type of instrument you have; be they string instruments (a cello, a double bass, a guitart, a viola or violin), woodwind instruments (a bassoon, clarinet, flute, oboe, recorder or saxophone), brass instruments (a cornet, French horn, trombone, trumpet or tuba) or even percussion instruments (cymbals, drums, tambourines, triangles).
Unbolted will pawn all brands from a Stradivarius to a Bosendorfer, Steinway, Yamaha or a Taylor, Fender, Hofner, Gretsch or even an Ibanez; we will offer the best loan value for you.
As long as your musical instrument has an open market value, we will happily do a pawn loan of up to 70% of this figure. We understand that specialist knowledge in this field is paramount, which is why we work closely with industry leading experts and specialists in order to complete your valuations.
