You're child came home excited to join the school's band, but you've got concerns.
Can I afford an instrument? What if it breaks? What if they quit?
Rent toward ownership and put your mind at ease so your child can get the experience of a lifetime!
Find the instrument your child is excited about playing and likes the sound of best.
You can complete your online rental in a matter of minutes.
We'll deliver to your school so it's there when your child needs it. Or you can come pick it up!
If playability is compromised, you're covered while renting. Loaners are also available upon request, though subject to availability.
If you bought, you have to add the cost of upkeep on top of your purchase.
Fire or theft - it happens! While renting, you'll get another instrument right away.
If you purchase, you'll have to work with your insurance company. It may be weeks or months before your child is playing again.
If you can't continue after buying your instrument, you're stuck with an instrument collecting dust.
If you're renting, just bring it back! You'll have saved yourself a lot of time and money!
While renting, you can move from one instrument to another with 100% of your rental credit following.
Those that bought their instrument are, unfortunately, out of luck.
Once your child is ready to move up from their student instrument, your rental credit can apply to their step-up instrument.
If you bought your student-level instrument, this becomes much more difficult.
Get everything you need to get started on your instrument and your first month of rent is FREE!

*Maintenance & Replacement Coverage
You're never under any obligation!
All of your timely monthly rental rate payments accumulate as credit toward the ownership of your student instrument.
12 months worth of rental credit from your student instrument can transfer to an intermediate, "step-up" instrument. That means it's possible for every penny to go toward one, lifetime instrument.
Take 30% off your remaining balance to own your instrument at any time. You're never under any obligation to continue renting!
While our program is not technically a rent-to-own program, it functions in much the same way. 100% of your timely Monthly Rental Rate is accumulating as credit toward the ownership of your instrument (the Maintenance & Replacement and tax do not).
You can take 30% off the remaining balance at any time while you're renting and own the instrument, or you can own it after your rental credit accumulates to the purchase price of the instrument.
No, but we do have credit requirements in order to rent an instrument.
To avoid a credit review, you may present a major credit card (not debit card) at the time of rental, though you don't have to use the credit card to pay with.
If you don't have one and don't want to do a credit review, you can also have someone co-sign with you who can present a major credit card or successfully pass our credit review.
We offer a guaranteed buy-back program. You can purchase the instrument and take the 30% early-pay discount.
If you need to return the instrument within the first school year (prior to your child's last day of school), you may do so and we will give you your money back, less what you would have spent in rent over the same time period.
This is our favorite question!
1. Weekly School Visits
We make weekly visits to your school. Others don't, or if they do, are unreliable. No matter what you may need, we'll be there each week to take care of you.
2. Avoid a Credit Review
Present a major credit card (not debit) at the time of your rental and skip the review that you'll have to endure elsewhere.
3. Unmatched Instrument Quality
We carry the most teacher-approved name brands in the area.
4. Spend Less to Start
Pay for a trial period and for the book, stand, and other accessories - meaning you'll pay $50-100+ just to get started?! You can do all of this with us for just $39.99!
5. Online Ordering
Order accessories online and have them delivered to school for FREE!
6. Upgrade
Apply payments toward an intermediate (step-up) instrument, which you can also rent until you own it! No one around offers intermediate instrument rentals, let alone applying payments toward it!
6. 30 Day Money Back Guarantee
We offer a 30 Day money-back guarantee (no one we know does).
There are so many variables, it's hard to give you an exact number without knowing your specific situation. As a rule of thumb, 36 months may get you in the ballpark, though some instruments take much less time, and some take a bit more.
