Instrument costs vary based on type. However, most instruments can be
purchased with a 0% interest rate, rent-to-own style contract. Typically,
the monthly payments average between $30-40/monthly, but certain instruments
like oboes, French horns, and string basses cost slightly more. All of the
school service companies make it VERY easy and affordable to purchase an instrument
for band. Additionally, if the student decides to switch instruments
or upgrade, much of the equity put into the first instrument is transferable to
the new instrument. It’s a great deal!
