Is there anywhere local that does instrument rental?

Would you not be better off just buying a second hand one from ebay?

Or something like this which is new.

Obviously won't be the best cello, but will be good enough for starters (depending on your daughter's age, I'm guessing she's primary age?).

I just think people can end up spending a fortune renting instruments.

I'd buy something cheap and cheerful, and as and when I was satisfied she was going to stick with it I'd upgrade.

Sorry, I know that's not answered your actual question.

I have a 1/8 size and full size cello for rental. PM for details.

I think South London Music on Grove Vale have a rental scheme. Normally not keen on rental but having seen how my daughters have gone through different sizes on the violin, I'm glad we've got school instruments now. Not sure if they change as often on the cello.

Hello

I noticed your Post re. Cello hire and I wondered if you still have

a full size cello for hire ?

I am about to embark in a beginners cello course and would like to hire for this purpose.

If you do have a cello avaliable how much do you charge for hire etc...

Many thanks

Billie
