Vox and Marshall Amps: You won't find much variance in price on Vox or Marshall amps in the Internet or in mail order catalogs. Both manufacturers enforce a minimum advertised price that all retailers must observe. North Coast Music always offers our Vox amps at the lowest price allowed by the manufacturer. However, North Coast works hard to assure you that there will be no defects in the amp you purchase from us. We sell from only new, factory sealed amplifiers, just like most of our competition, but before we ship your amp, we open the carton and test every amp for proper operation and full performance. We also check for cosmetic blemishes such as loose or baggy grill cloth, discolorations or tears in the vinyl coverings, etc. Amps with problems are returned to the manufacturer. We aim for ZERO DEFECTS to you.

North Coast Music stocks about one hundred new Vox amps at anytime to help ensure that we can ship your order immediately.

North Coast also offers free UPS freight on all Vox amps shipped inside the continental US, and all AC-30 amplifiers are double boxed for your protection, at no additional charge to you.

Hofner Guitars and Basses: North Coast Music sold more Hofner guitars and basses than anyone one else in the United States for the past three years. We have great prices, but there is much more to the story. Our basses are all hand selected from Hofner's inventory to meet our stringent requirements. If any guitar requires an adjustment before shipping, these adjustments are performed by a Hofner trained technician. We pick the "cream of the crop" for our North Coast customers.

North Coast maintains an online digital photo gallery of our available inventory so you can see the guitar before purchasing. Wanna check out the flaminess of the back or the coloring on an in stock Hofner at North Coast Music? Just click here to see the online Hofner "in stock" gallery.

North Coast also adds additional protective packaging to all Hofner basses and guitars to ensure safe shipment.
