When starting to play a violin, viola, or cello, we recommend that you rent, rather than buy, a good quality instrument from a respectable shop. When you’re ready to commit to buying an instrument, we apply up to nine months of rental credit towards the purchase of any instrument we have in stock!

Rentals are, of course, ideal for the younger players who are still growing through the fractional instrument sizes. Sizing up to a larger instrument is easy, and you leave the maintenance and upkeep up to us.

Olsen Violins offers a full line of violins for rent, 1/16 size through 4/4 size. Violas and cellos are available in limited quantities. For more information about our rental program, including instrument availability and pricing, call (206)783-7654 or email us at info@olsenviolins.com.
