Welcome to Kilkenny Vintage Guitars, Ireland's first guitar shop strictly devoted to high-end used, vintage and reissue guitars. We specialize in Fender, Gibson and Martin guitars, and carry other big names such as Lowden, Gretsch, Rickenbacker, and Guild. Our motto is "all good guitars, all the time," and we stick to it, meaning that we generally do not carry any off shore or low-end models. Since opening in 2005, we've had some beauties pass through the shop, including a couple of early Gibson mandolins, 1930's Dobros, and some fantastic old basses. If you don't see what you're looking for here, please drop us a line, and bookmark this page! We always keep the site up to date with our latest stock.

Here at KVG we strive to bring a variety of quality guitars to the Irish player. For a country full of musicians, Ireland was in serious need of a place where guitarists could go to play and purchase vintage guitars. Previously guitarists seeking high-end goods had to either go to Dublin and pay top retail prices or fly to London. Now you can come down to Thomastown, where you'll find walls full of Fenders, Gibsons, and not much else! We at KVG strive to provide value for money. While our guitars aren't cheap, you'll find that our prices are very competitive compared to the international dealer market, other shops in Ireland, and even the Buy and Sell. So if you're looking for a Les Paul, Tele or Strat, don't buy new! Come to Kilkenny Vintage Guitars, and get the best deal in Ireland.
