Instrument Rental

The CCSA rents instruments to students enrolled in CCSA lessons at a minimual cost. Students not registered through the CCSA are not elibible for instrument rental. Families renting CCSA instruments help with the maintenance of our instruments by cleaning them and by replacing broken strings. The cost for rental for a 10 week session is $29.00 for a violin or viola and $37.00 for a cello. This fee includes $4.00 for insurance which covers loss, major damage and theft. There is a $50.00 deductible for each instance of loss, major damage or theft. This insusrance does not cover instrument supplies such as strings, rosin or shoulder rests.

In the event of instrument damage, the private instructor must be notified as soon as possible. He or she will advise you as to how to proceed. Once the teacher is notified, it is up to the renter to make arrangements for the repairs, NOT the private instructor. The CCSA will not be responsible for the cost of repairs if your private instructor was not notified. Instruments must be surrendered upon the request of the private instructor/CCSA. The renter has 15 days from the date of request to return the instrument to the CCSA. If the instrument is not surrendered within the allotted time, it is the right of the CCSA to take appropriate action to reclaim the instrument or be compensated for the full value of the instrument. Non-payment of tuition will result in the immediate collection of a CCSA rental instrument.
