What should I know about leasing a string instrument for my child?
What’s included when I begin a lease?
For $49.95 + tax, you receive:
- A director-approved method book
- An instrument care kit
- A 12-month service protection plan
- An instrument name tag
- Use of a sized orchestral instrument for the first month
How is this different from the band rental program?
String players often need different sizes as they grow, so our lease is designed to be:
- Flexible — easily exchange sizes as your student grows
- Equitable — part of your payments are held as credit for a full-size or step-up instrument when your student is ready
How long is the lease?
- Month-to-month
- Lease as long as needed, then return or upgrade
How do I return the instrument?
- Drop it off at any West Music store
- After a quick check, we’ll stop your payments
