Q: What are your payment terms?
A: Minimum 3-month term required for all rentals with delivery and pickup service (within service area). Customers who pick-up and return an instrument themselves have the option for a 2-month minimum rental.

Term extensions beyond the minimum rental period are typically invoiced in 3-month increments, but can be customized in half-month increments at the customer’s request.

Q: What if we want to move the instrument to another room after the delivery is made?
A: All of our marimbas have castors, so moving to another location on the same floor is easily done. For our 3.0 and 4.3 octave instruments, it is possible to move up or down stairs with two people. However, identifying a permanent location during your rental is desirable.

Q: Do you offer rent-to-own options?

Q: Do you have vibraphones for rent?
A: Yes! We have vibraphones ideal for learning pedaling and dampening techniques. These instruments have the same note range as our 3.0 octave marimbas.

Q: What is the different between a 4.3 octave and a 4.3 octave wide-bar marimba?
A: The width of the bars for both instruments gradually get wider as notes go lower (bars are graduated). The wide-bar model has a greater graduation than the standard model and is consistent with that of the larger, 5-octave range instruments used by professionals. 4.3 marimba comparison chart:
