Brilliant new scrappage scheme set to provide a fantastic deal for players — so get in touch straight away!

Band Supplies
 

Band Supplies are delighted to re-introduce their famous scrappage scheme for the summer months of June through to August, where they are offering a massive part exchange allowance on any new brass instrument bought in the Leeds or Glasgow shops.

So strong

The part exchange prices are so strong they can only be quoted when you telephone or email the stores directly.

Leeds manager Christopher Tudball told 4BR: "The last time we ran this scheme it was a massive success for Band Supplies and was tremendously well received by customers up and down the country."

He added: " Players flocked to get new instruments in time for the major contest season which starts at the end of August"

These part exchange prices that we are offering cannot be held indefinitely, so be quick to take advantageBand Supplies

Take advantage

Band Supplies Ronnie Tennant reiterated just how good the scheme is: "With the prices we are offering for complete old pro line brass instruments and the discounts on the new stock available, it really is a great position for the consumer at present. These part exchange prices that we are offering cannot be held indefinitely, so be quick to take advantage."

Contact:

You will need to contact the Leeds or Glasgow shops directly to obtain the best prices though.
