You have the option of purchasing equipment on your own or renting through a Music Store. Renting is great because if something goes wrong, you will have insurance to cover the cost, you can also move up to larger or smaller instruments for free. (If planning to purchase an instrument, please touch base with me. Amazon is great for a lot of things, but not instruments!!)
I have included resources of Local Stores and an Online Vendor, but do not endorse one specific vendor over another. Please consider what is best for your family.
High School Students have the option to rent a Violin/Viola for the year through the school at a price of $50/year. This will cover basic maintenance for the instrument - the family is liable for any major repairs needed if the instrument breaks.
