Top Quality Rentals

For beginning and advancing students.

We offer, by far, the highest quality rentals available in Central, TX. We carry name brand instruments from companies including Eastman, Angel Strings, and Amati’s Fine Instruments, rather than generic, unlabeled factory instruments. This means that you can expect superior tone and durability from your instrument during your rental period.

As our rental customer, you accrue Rental Credit with every payment. Your Rental Credit is flexible and can be used toward any instrument of like kind. You are not limited to the instrument you are renting.

Our Protection Plan gives you peace of mind as you rent. You need not panic in the event of damage! After paying a small fee, you will be on your way to playing again in no time.

Performance Hall and Teaching Studios

Our North location houses a world class performance hall and three teaching studios. These spaces are available for booking at affordable hourly rates, year around. Our recital hall features a beautiful wood floor and baby grand piano. Usage of the space is available to all types of clients, not just musicians!

Repairs, Restorations, and Bow Rehairs

We offer high quality repairs and bow rehairs on student and professional level instruments and bows. Instruments in need of restoration can be dropped off for a free estimate. We strive for honesty in all our repair work and quoting. We will contextualize repair costs within the potential value of your instrument to help you make a decision about how much you would like to spend.
