Instrument Rentals
We offer a flexible rental program for our student-level string instruments. When you rent with us you will make monthly payments, and 100% of the rental fee will count towards the purchase of the instrument. Once you've made enough payments to cover the total value of the instrument outfit, it will become yours.
You are not obligated to purchase the instrument. In fact, you may return your rental instrument at any time. Alternatively, if you enjoy your rental instrument and want to purchase it, you can pay it off early at any point!

All string instruments need regular adjustments and maintenance throughout their lifetime, and ensuring the proper set-up of your instrument is key to to keeping it in good shape.
Whether it's replacing old strings or an old bridge, gluing open seams, even cleaning old rosin off the body and ensuring that the pegs are properly lubricated, you'll want a knowledgeable person to perform regular maintenance on your instrument so it can keep sounding it's very best.
