The Amped Instrument & Gear Library

Not everyone has access to good-quality music equipment — and that shouldn’t be the thing that holds anyone back. The Amped Instrument & Gear Library is our way of making music more accessible for the whole community.

We collect donated instruments, amps, pedals and sound gear, refurbish what needs attention, and make them available for lessons, workshops, rehearsals and loan schemes. Every piece of equipment helps remove a barrier for someone starting out, returning to music, or trying something new.

If you’ve got an instrument gathering dust or a bit of gear you’re no longer using, donating it can make a real difference to a musician in Berwick. It keeps equipment in circulation, supports learning, and strengthens the creative community we’re building together.
