Davidson Violins rents violins, violas, and cellos. Our rentals come from several workshops and are tested, played and adjusted for best playing experience. Give them the best chance of success with an excellent quality, sturdy student instrument from Davidson Violins.
Our rental instruments are set up to professional and MENC standards, and easily outperform the competition. You might expect that we would have premium pricing, but that is not our goal for these excellent instruments. Our formula is simple: If the instrument plays and sounds better, the student is more likely to be successful and will probably keep it longer. So rather than offer a mediocre rental that is more likely to return to us quickly, we give students the best instruments we can to serve the main goal – giving students the best chance at succeeding. Our business is built around long term investment in player success rather than a quick sale. We have not lost our enthusiasm for seeing string playing grow and expand in our region. And we have seen consistently that drop out rates in school programs and private studios are significantly less with students who use our instruments.
Why Rent an Instrument? We have a complete section that will explain the advantages of renting if the student is a beginner.

50% of every month’s rental fee (not including tax or Protection Plan) accumulates as credit towards purchase of Davidson Violins instruments. You can use it to buy your rental or any other instrument in our shop.
This is a huge advantage for you since your equity can be used towards many instrument options. Switching to a larger instrument or a viola? No problem. Your equity continues to accumulate no matter which instrument you are renting.
