## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Reverb Music Gear Scraper

Scrape **Reverb** listings — guitars, pedals, synths, amps and more — with **prices, condition, make / model / year, finish, shop and location**. Built for **gear price research, deal-hunting and flipping**.

No API keys, no login — reads Reverb's public API, so it's fast and cheap.

### What it does

Give it search terms (and optional filters) and it returns every matching listing, normalized:

`title`, `make`, `model`, `year`, `finish`, `price`, `currency`, `condition`, `shopName`, `inventory`, `inStock`, `isAuction`, `categories`, `createdAt`, `url`, `photo`.

Export to JSON, CSV, Excel or Google Sheets, or use it as a tool for AI agents.

### Use cases

- **Flipping / arbitrage** — find underpriced gear across thousands of listings.
- **Price research** — what does a 2019 MIM Strat actually sell for, by condition?
- **Market tracking** — run on a schedule to watch new listings and prices in a category.
- **Dealer intelligence** — see what shops are listing and at what prices.

### Input

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `queries` | Search terms, e.g. `Fender Stratocaster`, `Tube Screamer`. Each scraped separately. |
| `category` | Optional Reverb category slug (e.g. `electric-guitars`, `effects-and-pedals`). |
| `condition` | Optional: `used`, `new`, `b-stock`, `mint`, `excellent`, `very-good`, `good`… |
| `priceMin` / `priceMax` | Price range filter. |
| `currency` | `USD`, `EUR`, `GBP`… |
| `maxItemsPerQuery` / `maxItems` | Caps. |

### Output

One row per listing with the fields listed above. `price` is a number; `priceDisplay` keeps the formatted string.

### Notes

Reverb caps how deep search pagination goes, so very broad queries return up to a few thousand of the most relevant listings — narrow with `category`, `condition` or price filters for full coverage of a segment.

# Actor input Schema

## `queries` (type: `array`):

Search terms to scrape, e.g. "Fender Stratocaster", "Ibanez Tube Screamer". Each is scraped separately. Leave empty to scrape a whole category.

## `category` (type: `string`):

Reverb category slug to scope/scrape, e.g. electric-guitars, effects-and-pedals, synths-keyboards. Used with or without a query.

## `condition` (type: `string`):

Filter by condition: used, new, b-stock, mint, excellent, very-good, good, fair, poor, non-functioning.

## `priceMin` (type: `integer`):

Only listings at or above this price (in the chosen currency).

## `priceMax` (type: `integer`):

Only listings at or below this price.

## `currency` (type: `string`):

Currency for prices and filters, e.g. USD, EUR, GBP.

## `maxItemsPerQuery` (type: `integer`):

Cap listings collected per search query.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Global cap across all queries (0 = unlimited).

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many queries to scrape in parallel.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Apify Proxy (datacenter) is enough — the Reverb API is public.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "Fender Stratocaster"
  ],
  "category": "",
  "condition": "",
  "currency": "USD",
  "maxItemsPerQuery": 300,
  "maxItems": 0,
  "maxConcurrency": 4,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}
```

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "queries": [
        "Fender Stratocaster"
    ],
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("sashaebashu/reverb-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});
