Semitone Secures Funding to Expand Specialised Musical Instruments Marketplace

Semitone headshot

Semitone, the dedicated marketplace catering to musicians and enthusiasts seeking a diverse range of new, used, and vintage musical instruments, has successfully raised funds through the Velocity Capital SEIS fund. 

The online marketplace lists guitars, amplifiers, keys, synths, and recording equipment. The offerings span from entry-level guitars to exclusive vintage pieces valued at over £40,000.

What sets Semitone apart is its specialisation in the realm of musical instruments, a notable distinction from the more generalist marketplaces like Gumtree and eBay. While these platforms are home to various used items, Semitone focuses exclusively on meeting the needs of musicians and enthusiasts, ensuring much more relevant content and tailored experience.

The visionary behind Semitone, Rob Petts is a hobbyist musician. We are excited to partner with Semitone and support their expansion.
