Chattanooga - Band Instrument Rentals

New and Like-New Instruments
All of our brass, woodwind and string instruments are quality name brands you can trust and meet tough quality guidelines set forth by manufacturers, our quality control & repair technicians and many music educators.

Instrument Exchange and Upgrade Options
Your instrument may be exchanged at any time for an intermediate model or different instrument. In some cases, up to 24 months of credit may be applied toward the balance of the new instrument.

Instrument Purchase Option
With our rent-to-own program, you may continue making monthly payments and apply the Base Rent paid towards the lease-purchase price at any time.

Cancel at Any time
Because this is a month-to-month rental program, there is no minimum term and you may return the instrument at any time without further obligation.

Big Cash Purchase Discounts
We offer cash discounts to our customers interested in purchasing any of our new or like-new instruments (even if renting). We will match or beat any competitor's advertised price.

Loss/Damage Coverage
For a small monthly fee, your instrument can be covered against loss, theft or damage beyond repair through our M&R, or Maintenance and Replacement Program. Loaner instruments are provided to students (when available) while our certified service professionals tend to the instrument in need of service. It's peace of mind you can count on.

Fast and Easy Approvals
We say YES when others say NO! We offer a rental plan for just about any credit situation and are extremely flexible with the approval process. In most cases, our customers are approved in minutes.

Backed by a Nationwide Provider
The Veritas Instrument Rental Affiliate Network is a nationally recognized school music resource offering quality options and value to parents, a commitment of service to our music educators and the tools our children need to play.

20 Ways You Can Help Your Child Succeed in Music Education

1. Celebrate their decision to bring music into their life and participate in a school music program.

2. Read the literature brought home from school and determine what is required to get started.

3. If there is an open house or parent meeting, plan to attend with your child.

4. Acquire a musical instrument that is in proper playing condition. Investigate rent-to-own programs.

5. Be sure your child has any required method books or learning materials prior to the first day of class.

6. Provide a suitable time and place for home practice. Don't cast them out to the garage!

7. Encourage and support practice. That awful noise will only turn into beautiful music with practice.

8. Develop a rapport with the music educator. Ask for their list of ways you can help your child.

9. Get involved in booster and fundraising organizations. It's quality time invested into a great cause.

10. Be generous with your acknowledgements of your child's progress. Learning to play isn't easy!

11. Don't rule out learning to play, yourself. Music making is an extremely rewarding experience.

12. Record your child's home practices on tape/cd. Listen with them and praise their improvements.

13. Enhance their interest by purchasing current/popular sheet music at your local music store.

14. DO NOT, under any circumstance, miss their first public performance. This is their big day.

15. Offer rewards for the tough hurdles. Research upgrade instruments when the time is right.

16. If your child is struggling, don't give up. Seek the advice of the music director and offer your help.

17. Don't push from one side, but rather support from all angles. Rally the entire family behind the effort.

18. Keep the instrument in good working order. An instrument in disrepair slows your child's progress

19. Be aware of school budget hearings. Music programs are usually the first cut when cash gets tight

20. Learning to play takes patience, time and effort. Progress can be slow, at times, which can lead to frustration and lost interest. You have to remember that we're competing with computers, video games, television, sports and time with friends. Neither your child nor their teacher can do this alone. They need your support, encouragement and participation. The rewards are well worth your investment of time & finances. Get involved and enjoy this time with your child!
