2022 Rentals
A notice about the violin rental program: we still have student violin outfits (Palatino) for rent. The cost is $30 a month with a $200 deposit (refundable). The minimum rental period is 3 months. The outfit comes with a padded case, carved solid wooden violin, wooden bow, rosin and case straps. It's missing a shoulder rest. We have them for sale for $25 each. You can upgrade to Adam Sweet's Fiddler's Bow for an additional $125 (and get to keep the bow) as the wooden bow that comes with the case is only mediocre.
Mandolin rental program: we have a wide variety of options this year. For example, you can rent a Mando Mo A or F style mandolin with a hardshell case for only $75 a month (and a $500 refundable deposit). These are gorgeous mandolins! Air-dried tonewood, American steel frets, German Optima hand-wound strings, solid tailpieces, TUSQ nuts, MOP and Abalone inlay and Brekke adjustable bridges. We can't believe we can offer these instruments for rent. The program is rent to buy. 50% of the rental fee goes to the purchase of the instrument! Email info@sweetmusicstudio.net with the word "mando mo rental" in the subject line to get some more information about that. You can set up a time to try out the instrument in person (socially distanced of course), or Adam can play it for you online so you can see it and hear what it sounds like before renting it.
In addition to mandolins, we have mandocellos and mandolas for rent. Please ask!
