Welcome to Replay Guitars.


Hello everyone!

We are a boutique musical instrument store and repair workshop based in the inner-northern Melbourne suburb of Carlton North.

We offer an extensive collection of vintage, second-hand and new instruments and amplifiers for sale, and our team has decades of experience with the sale and consignment of golden-era guitars and basses from Fender, Gibson, Gretsch, Rickenbacker, Martin and more.

Our workshop specialises in servicing, repairs, restoration, modifications, and customisations of both electric and acoustic instruments.

If you do your own repair and servicing work, we also offer a comprehensive guitar and bass parts catalog, with all you need for your own projects, upgrades and customisations. 

Thanks for dropping by! 

A little about us...

Replay Guitars was founded in 2013 by professional musician, producer and guitar technician Chris Frangou with the goal to provide high-quality, affordable, tailored instrument servicing and repair work to the Melbourne music community. 

As a technician, Chris draws on his vast and diverse knowledge of musical  instruments and musical styles to offer a bespoke service experience that caters for everyone, from professional, world-class musicians to beginners alike. This diverse and extensive experience covers everything from the golden-era of Fender, Gibson, Gretsch & Martin all the way up to modern, extended-range, multi-scale guitars, and other technologically advanced instruments. His attention to detail inspired by Swiss watch-making precision.
