Instrument Rentals


We believe that access to a high-quality instrument goes hand-in-hand with high-quality learning, so our rental instruments are individually selected by our experienced supplier. Each receives a professional setup: a hand-cut bridge, soundpost fitting, and quality strings for all sizes including fractional models.

Care & Maintenance

​Keep your instrument safe from cold and especially hot and dry weather, and avoid quick temperature changes whenever possible. Never leave your outfit unsupervised in a vehicle- our insurance coverage doesn’t apply in the event of theft or damage when left unattended. Please wipe strings, fingerboard, and instrument body with the soft cloth provided after each use. And teachers- kindly don’t put stickers on the varnished areas.

These small efforts go a long way to protect your valuable rental instrument and bow.
