Instrument Rentals

Monthly Rental

RESERVE INSTRUMENT

We have a 3-month minimum rental period required. After the initial 3-month period, we will automatically charge you by either credit card or ACH bank transfer. Monthly rentals with tax and insurance will be charged to your financial institution, unless you return the instrument back to our facility.  You will be charged from the day your instrument leaves our shop until we receive it back in our shop.
