Stringed Instrument Hire

Hiring from WA Music gives you access to quality stringed instruments, expertly set up by our in-house luthiers. Stringed Instruments are not all the same! The quality of the set-up, strings, tailpiece, bow and tuning pegs all affect the overall sound of the instrument and the ease of playing. A proper setup—including strings, tailpiece, bow, and pegs—greatly improves sound and playability.
