Our Rating Out Of 5:

If you like guitars then you might want to check out Guitar Gear Giveaway. Owned by Guitar Gear Giveaway Limited this pay to enter prize draw site is dedicated offering incredible guitars and gear. The site is built on the Zap Competitions platform which gives it a tidy and stylish design. Since inception the guys behind the site have dished out over £6million in prizes to over 14000 winners. All draws are guaranteed and they claim to complete around 25 draws per week. Unsurprisingly the prizes are guitar based and as of June 2024 include items such as a Gretsch G5622T-CB Electromatic, Fender Custom Telecaster FMT HH in Black Cherry Burst, Fender Limited Edition American Pro Il Thinline Stratocaster in Daphne Blue. These are joined by a handful of amps, music tech and instant win prizes.

How To Enter

Entering prize draws at Guitar Gear Giveaway is very easy. Simply answer a very easy multiple choice question, select the number of tickets that you wish to buy and then go on and complete the purchase. You do need to be registered and logged in to the site to participate. Each prize draw has a limited number of tickets that can be purchased. The number of tickets you can buy per draw is limited (although it can be up to 200). A no purchase entry route is available for all prize draws and these are outlined in the terms and conditions. Given the price of tickets versus stamps then it's only really a useful option for the more expensive draws.

Closing Dates

Each Guitar Gear Giveaway draw has a limited number of tickets available and a closing date. According to their FAQ, competitions are not extended and "the draw still goes ahead as planned and you now have a better chance of winning". If tickets sell out really quickly then the prize draw gets closed and drawn earlier than advertised. There is a lot of clarity with respect to entries with each draw clearly indicating the number of tickets sold and those that are still available. However there are - as far as we can see - any reference to entry lists as you find on some other sites. If you prefer not to wait until the closing date to see if you're a winner then there are some Instant Win prize draws also on the site.

Winners

Guitar Gear Giveaway stream live draws on Facebook and Youtube every week on Monday and Thursday at 6pm. Prize draw winners are "selected using Google random number generator". When the winning number is selected the winner is then shown in a spreadsheet so there's full transparency. A full list of winners can be found on social media and on their webpage. A lovely little riff plays each time a winner is selected on the lives. The Winners Stage section on site provides the name of who won and the winning ticket number. There are no links to the prize draw videos though or entry lists. Furthermore no details are given regarding number of ticket sales for the completed draws (although no one seems to be happy to offer this kind of detail). Guitar Gear Giveaway has over 90 pages of winners all with photos showing very happy entrants with their prizes.

Our Verdict

There are a number of Guitar Prize Draw sites including The Guitar Marketplace, Guitar Comps and others. However Guitar Gear Giveaway is probably the best of the bunch. Ticket prices start from under £1 but there are occasional low entry (99 entries max) giveaways with higher ticket prices. The choice of prizes looks good, although to be fair we don't know anything about guitars! We like the many pages of winners though and that is a great sign of a brand doing things right. There's no references however to responsible play and ticket limits per competition seem to be set at around 10%. That can still result in high volumes of payments. On a positive note GGG do support charities and have a whole section dedicated to this. In fact they run four big charity fundraisers every year.
