Hiring an instrument is the easiest and cheapest way of exploring your or your child's musical talent without the expense of an outright purchase. With a minimum hire term of just 3 months, why not give it a go?
We have been providing instruments for hire and for sale since 1997. Originally supplying just saxophones, we have expanded due to popular demand to include all woodwind instruments as well as a large range of brass instruments.
Music is our passion and we aim to encourage as many people as possible to get involved and learn to play a musical instrument. We are happy to offer advice and help to musicians of all ages and abilities to help you choose the best instrument for you.
Whether you are a complete beginner or have some previous experience and may be looking to upgrade your instrument, we can help.
-
Flexible rental periods from 3 months.
- Delivery via DPD couriers for £9
- HALF PRICE first lesson (£14 for an hour rather than £28). This will be customised to your needs either as a beginner just wanting to try it before renting one or as a refresher session if you have played before or are upgrading etc.
- Further lessons are available for £14 per 30 minutes.
- We are the only firm in the UK offering rental options on pro-level instruments including Yamaha, Selmer Paris, Yanagisawa, Trevor James, Buffet and Besson etc.
We offer 2 options for every instrument that we stock.
1. Rent for 3 months. You can then either buy it, return it or continue to rent it on a monthly basis for up to 12 months with the option t buy.
2. Outright purchase with the option to sell the instrument back to us for a guaranteed price (eg buy an alto sax with the option to sell it back to us for the same price less £20pm depreciation).

All our instruments are tested prior to dispatch and as standard come with all you need to get started:
Carry case, new Vandoren or Rico reed, mouthpiece with comfort patch, ligature and cap, neck strap and cork grease.
