Rentals

Tiller Strings works closely with strings teachers in the area to offer their preferred, high quality student and advancing instruments as rentals.  Rental instruments include violins, violas, cellos, st guitars, mandolins, and banjos.  All sizes are available. Contact us to set up a rental agreement with all the details you’ll need to know about renting an instrument.

Renting vs. Buying

Renting gives you the flexibility of having a low initial investment while accruing rental credit toward the purchase of an instrument. Unsure whether to rent or buy? Talk to your teacher, or contact Megan for advice.
