Rent

We want to make it as easy as possible for you to get your child ready for music class. That's why we've completely redesigned our website and rental policies to make everything very simple and easy-to-understand:
Rent any instrument for as long as you want, and return it when you're done.
It's really that simple!
Depending on the instrument, you can rent for as little as $30/month. You can rent online or in-person at one of our many locations spread across Fairfield County. The entire process takes only a few minutes and we'll help you along the way.

Accessorize

The rental comes with everything your child needs to get started, but we also sell the extra accessories that their music teacher may require for class.
We're also creating short videos explaining which accessories we think you should get, how to use them, and why you need them.

Manage

Renting with us gives you access to your very own online portal, where you have complete transparency into your account and management of your information.
You can change your contact info, update your payment information, and even view your payment history on desktop and mobile.

Repair

If you experience any trouble with your instrument, we are always here to help.
We offer special cleaning services, tune-ups, and whatever other repairs are needed to get your child back up and running with his/her music lessons.

Exchange

If for whatever reason you are not happy with the rental instrument you were given, you can exchange your instrument for a different one of the same type of a completely different instrument altogether!
If your new instrument is of the same type as your original, then it's just a simple swap. Nothing else changes.

Ask

We've complied a very comprehensive list of frequently asked questions from our customers and are also in the process of creating short informative videos to help you learn more about your instrument, accessories, and rental contract.

Return

You don't know if your child is going to stick with (or even enjoy) their new musical instrument. We get it! That's why you're renting rather than buying. Unlike other rental companies, you are never locked into a contract longer than 1 month.
When you don't need it anymore, simply bring it back, and your rental payments will end immediately.
