Derringers Music

Adelaide


If you’re into guitars, point your plectrum towards Derringers, 3km south of the city in funky Forestville – a compact cave-of-wonders hung with gorgeous vintage, new and rare guitars. If you’re here on holiday, you’re probably not about to walk out the door with a 1964 US Gibson Hummingbird, but here’s your chance to play one! Shipping available.
