Try before you buy? Hire before you buy?

John Packer offers the perfect solution when it comes to instrument hire

Hire options
 

For players looking to take up a new instrument, or a band needing to fill a gap in their line-up, the John Packer hire scheme offers a very attractive option to cater for your needs.

Variety

John Packer hire a variety of instruments; anything from a mini tuba, to marching instruments, cornets to trombones — for players in need of an urgent musical fix or bands in need of an affordable longer term performance option.

Selection

We have a large selection of brass instruments, with prices starting as little as £15 per month. Hirers even have the option to off-set a maximum of 6 months’ hire payments off the price of the instrument — a great low cost way of trying something before committing.

The competitive hire fees include insurance and maintenance and we also offer customised options to fit your requirements.
