Guitar value checker & identifier
Point your camera at any electric or acoustic guitar and Minti identifies the brand, model, and approximate era, then shows what it's worth from recent eBay sold listings. Identify it, track it, and sell it, all in one app.
How much is your guitar worth?
Book prices go stale the moment they're printed. Minti checks what guitars are actually selling for right now by pulling values from recent eBay sold listings, so a vintage Stratocaster, a modern signature model, or a well-loved acoustic all get a value grounded in real sales.
- Real market value from recent eBay sold comps
- See how condition and originality shift the price before you list
- Price history across 7-day, 1-month, 6-month, and 1-year windows
Identify any guitar in seconds
Not sure exactly what you're holding? Minti's AI reads the guitar to identify the brand, model, and approximate era, and picks up key features like body shape, pickups, and finish, then matches it to a priced record. It distinguishes similar models and common reissues, so a real vintage piece isn't confused with a modern reissue.
- Recognizes electric and acoustic guitars across modern and vintage eras
- Separates similar models and common reissues from the original
- Auto-fills brand, model, and key features so your entry stays clean
What drives a guitar's value
Two guitars of the same model can sell for very different amounts. Minti helps you weigh the factors that matter most so your value and your listing reflect reality.
- Brand and model desirability: some makers and models hold demand far better than others
- Originality: original parts versus swapped pickups, tuners, or refinishes can move the price a lot
- Condition: wear, cracks, and cosmetic issues all factor in
- Plays and set up well: a guitar that's ready to play is worth more than a project
Organize your guitar collection
Keep your guitars in sets and folders that mirror how you actually collect. Every item carries its images, condition, features, and current value, and your portfolio total updates as the market moves, so you always know what your collection is worth.

Guitar FAQ
How do I find out what my guitar is worth?
Scan the guitar with Minti. The AI identifies the brand, model, and approximate era, then pulls values from recent eBay sold listings so you see what similar guitars are actually selling for right now, not an outdated book price.
Can Minti identify the brand, model, and era?
Yes. Minti reads the headstock, body shape, pickups, and finish to identify the brand and model and estimate the era, and it can distinguish similar models and common reissues from the original.
Does originality and condition affect the value?
Yes. Originality matters a lot: original parts versus swapped pickups, tuners, or refinishes can move the price significantly. Condition and whether the guitar plays and is set up well also factor into what buyers are willing to pay.

Yes. Minti is free to download and includes a monthly allowance of AI scans, plus organizing, value tracking, and marketplace access. Paid tiers raise the scan and storage limits for larger collections.
