Buying used gear from the Nordics

The Nordic AV rental, broadcast and system integration markets stay at the very forefront of technological advancements. Companies are quick to adopt new technology and have very demanding end users. This means a high turnover rate with comparatively new pre-owned gear for sale. The Nordics are in a cool, low humidity climate zone which means that gear is in great condition even after years of outside use. Corrosion is generally a smaller issue here than in many more temperate coastal regions.

The Gearwise team has decades of experience within sales and distribution of professional sound, lighting, video and staging equipment from leading manufacturers. We know the products we sell and can always help you with any questions that you may have. Even more importantly, we know our sellers and can attest to their honesty and professionalism.
