The rental instrument comes with everything you need to play plus any specific accessories requested by the director. 

The initial accessories needed to play are included with your rental (additional reeds are extra) but anything beyond that is paid for at your own expense.

We will notify you if there is an accessory requested by a director that is not included before you get charged.

100% of the rental payment goes toward the retail price of the instrument.

You can either bring the instrument to our store location (recommended)

OR

Let the director know that you would like to return it and we will pick it up during our weekly stop at the school. (renters are responsible for returning instruments - not directors)

You can bring the instrument you're currently renting to our store location and swap it for a different instrument or a size up instrument.

It's recommended to give us a call ahead of time so we have the instrument to which you'd like to switch ready for you to pick up.

100% of your credit from the previous instrument will go towards the new instrument as long as it's a current rental. 

This process can be done through the school but you need to call us ahead of time to facilitate the swap.

You can

A.) bring the instrument to our store location and we will repair it at no charge (so long as it’s not due to malicious damage).

B.) inform the director it needs repair and we will pick it up during our weekly stop

Sometimes, we can even provide a loaner instrument while yours is being fixed.

100% of our rental instruments are ready to play.

Some of them are new and some of them are “rental returns” that have been rented before but go through our shop to ensure they are ready to play when picked up or delivered.

If you select “Deliver to School” on the rental contract, we will select the instrument for you based on your school director’s preferences.

If you select “Pickup in Store,” you can pick out your specific instrument and even try out multiple brands.

You can keep renting it (recommended) so that you continue building equity towards the payoff of the instrument and continue practicing over the summer

OR

you can return it to our store location to stop payments.

The total cost of the instrument being rented depends on the brand, condition, and type of instrument -which varies depending on the director preference.

You can call us at anytime to ask the total cost of your specific rental.

It depends on the retail price and monthly payment!

A violin with a retail price of $600 rented at $20 per month will take 30 months or 2.5 years to pay off.

A flute with a retail price of $1200 rented at $30 per month will take 40 months or 3.3 years to pay off.

A euphonium with a retail price of $3900 rented at $65 per month will take 60 months or 5 years to pay off.

Etc.

Yes! You can pay off your instrument early and receive a 30% discount on the remaining balance.

You get one free repair to be used within one year of your payoff date and then after that it would be out of pocket for repairs.

You can use 100% of your credit towards the student instrument to go towards a step-up or pro instrument.

Yes!

You do have to have a history of renting a student instrument before you can rent-to-own a step-up or pro instrument, but any instrument can be done as a rent-to-own.

Note: Some pro instruments are done as a payment plan where you cannot swap out or return them once you sign the agreement. Ask a WMBO staff member for details.

If you selected “Delivery” payments will begin after the instrument is delivered to the school.

If you selected “Pickup” payments start the date you pick up the instrument from our store location.

No, we automatically charge cards on file on the 10th of every month.

If there is an issue with a card on file, we will contact you via phone, email, or a letter in the mail to update your card information.

(accounts over 3 months late will be sent in for repo)

(accounts over 6 months late will be sent to collections)
