Reverb.com is an online marketplace for new, used, and vintage musical equipment, including instruments used by notable musicians.[1] It was founded in 2013 by David Kalt, shortly after he purchased the musical instrument store Chicago Music Exchange and became frustrated with then-available options for buying and selling guitars online.[2] It has grown into a multimillion-dollar business[2] with more than 10 million monthly visitors.[3] In August 2019, Etsy acquired Reverb for $275 million.[4]

Reverb allows anyone to create free listings for musical instruments and other related equipment. It has also sold equipment from popular artists such as Maroon 5,[5] Wilco,[6] Green Day,[7] Billy Corgan[8] and Ray Lamontagne.[9]

To help users determine market values for instruments, Reverb has a price guide of real-time transactional data. It offers iPhone and Android apps that include the site's main features, and as of 2017 has on-the-ground support in the UK, The Netherlands, Australia, Germany, France and Japan.[10] In late 2017, it launched Reverb LP,[11] an online marketplace for LPs and other physical music; and the Reverb Foundation,[12] with non-profit supporting programs and initiatives to increase access to music education, equipment, and playing opportunities.
