Rental Rates and Policies
The Fine Violins’ rental program begins with an initial three-month rental fee for a violin or viola with case and bow. An initial three-month rental program is also available for a cello including case and bow. Sales tax will be added to the rental fees and instrument insurance is optional. After the initial rental period and initial fees are paid, a fee per month payment schedule will be implemented. Billing statements in 3 month increments will be mailed to the renter before the end of the initial three-month period and will be due on the renewal date
During the length of the rental program, Fine Violins retains ownership of the instruments. The renter has an option of either returning the instrument after the initial rental period or renewing the rental agreement on a tri-monthly basis.
Lost or stolen instruments will be the sole responsibility of the renter. Any payments to date may be applied to the cost of replacement.
We offer an option to purchase the rented instrument as well. 100% of the 1st year rental payments and 20% of the 2nd and 3rd year rental payments, excluding insurance and tax, may be applied to the purchase price of the instrument. Case and bow are additional
