Reverb MCP server

@pipeworx/reverb

Live listings from Reverb.com, the musical-instrument marketplace — guitars, amps, pedals, synths, drums and pro audio, with make/model/year/finish/condition and the seller's asking price.

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1558+ live data sources.

Tools

model, product_type/category, condition, price band, year range, region, handmade, sort/order). Answers "what is a 1960s Gibson electric going for right now, and who is selling it".

• reverb_search(query, ...) — listing search with the gear filters (make,

asking and buyer price, offer/inventory state, photos, shipping rates by region.

• reverblisting(listingid) — one listing in full: seller description,

preferred-seller status, location, shipping posture.

• reverbshop(shopslug) — seller profile: feedback count, rating,

producttype / category on reverbsearch without guessing slugs.

• reverbcategories(rootslug?) — the category tree, so a caller can fill

Auth

Keyless. Every endpoint this pack calls answers without a token — verified 2026-09-05. Only account-scoped Reverb endpoints (/api/my/, orders, selling) need OAuth, and none of those are exposed here, so there is no PLATFORMREVERB_KEY and no BYOK path.

Asking prices only — there is no sold data here

Reverb's public Price Guide is retired. Both /api/priceguide and /api/priceguide/transactions answer:

HTTP 403  { "Error": "This endpoint is no longer publicly available." }

for every query (verified 2026-09-05). Everything this pack returns is a live asking price, not a realized sale, and every response says so in its pricebasis and solddata fields. Do not use it as comps. For realized instrument prices, Reverb is not the source.

Data sources

query, make, model, producttype, category, condition, pricemin, pricemax, currency, yearmin, yearmax, itemregion, shipsto, handmade, sort, order, page, perpage.

• — listing search. Params used:

• — listing detail.
• — seller profile.
• — the full category tree (roots plus sub-categories, 320 entries). Plain /api/categories returns only the 14 roots.

Docs live at (dev.reverb.com redirects there).

Things worth not rediscovering:

select the JSON API. Without them you can get HTML.

• The Accept-Version: 3.0 and Accept: application/hal+json headers are what

query still reports totalpages: 50. Requesting page=51 nevertheless returns results, so treat the cap as a display artifact, not a paging bound. reverbsearch returns a totalpagesnote saying this.

• totalpages is capped at 50** regardless of total — a 77,081-result

the seller's currency, while price.currency follows the currency param.

• price and buyerprice differ when tax is involved; listingcurrency is

which the search payload omits.

• Listing detail carries the shop's feedbackcount and ratingpercentage,

• reverb.com/llms.txt is a 404 as of 2026-09-05, despite reports otherwise.

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "reverb": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/reverb/mcp"
    }
  }
}

What this endpoint actually serves

tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/reverb/mcp returns the tools in the table above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — askpipeworx, discovertools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and is the authoritative answer for a given day.
