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.

So if you’re looking for a cornet, flugel, tenor horn, baritone, trombone, 3 valve euphonium, 3 valve Eb bass or 3 valve Bb bass, visit our website where you can download a hire form today.
