      Getting your first band instrument!

       

      Learning to play an instrument is hard enough...students who start band on a quality instrument tend to learn faster and stay with it longer than students who start on an inferior instrument. Cheaper instruments bought on sites like Amazon or eBay are prone to quality issues that end up costing more money in the long run. Buying an instrument is an investment that will impact your band students' progress, so we strongly suggest buying or renting your instrument from a reputable music store like Music and Arts who provide students with quality instruments. Music and Arts also provides rent to own options and pre-owned programs that help make this investment easier for parents.
