To Rent an Instrument

BandSource offers a true Rent-To-Own Program, to get your young student musician started on a high quality band instrument. Itʼs an affordable, simple way to ensure that your beginning band student has the best experience possible, while offering both peace of mind and financial flexibility to you as a parent.

The rental agreement begins with a 3 month trial period that allows the student to try their new band instrument at a fraction of the cost of the regular monthly payments. This is followed by affordable monthly rental payments that are debited from any major credit or debit card. BandSourceʼs true Rent-to-Own program is completely free of finance charges and interest. The majority amount of your payments goes toward reducing the beginning balance of the instrument until ownership is achieved, or the commitment from the student prompts the parent to exercise an early ownership option that offers a 25% discount off the remaining available balance at any point during the rental.

If your student decides to discontinue study on their band instrument for any reason, you may return the instrument to NMS without any further commitment.

Maintenance and replacement is also included in your monthly rental payments, which offers peace of mind to parents by covering regular maintenance, major or minor repair, and even replacement in the case of loss, theft or damage beyond repair. Extended maintenance services are available through BandSource on any student, intermediate or professional level instrument purchased through our company as well.

In addition to the available early payoff option of your student level instrument, BandSource also offers a very progressive upgrade or exchange program as part of our true Rent-to-Own program. These options allow you to upgrade to an intermediate or professional level instrument for your student musician, while utilizing the full amount that youʼve invested towards ownership in the student rental program. If you explore this option, youʼll find up to the entire first year of your rental credit may be applied to the competitive purchase price of any intermediate or professional level instrument available from BandSourceʼs comprehensive selection. Offering full rental credit off the competitive purchase price is a very unique benefit that is not offered through most of our competitors.

BandSourceʼs ultimate goal in offering such a flexible and true Rent-to-Own program is quite simple; We wish for every student musician to have the opportunity to experience playing a high quality band instrument, and as a result of succeeding in their musical studies, they will own their own instrument as quickly and fairly as possible.

You may rent an instrument online at www.bandsourcecompany.com, call our store or stop by our store. Delivery to NMS is available upon request.
