Piano Renting Services
on: July 31, 2015, 04:27:05 PM
Sounds silly but here's my position.

Since leaving school I have unfortunately never been in a financial position to afford a piano matching my ability.
I currently have a pre-owned 1925 upright lacking pleasantries to the eye and even more so to the touch.

I am a little scared to try and commit to finance payments for the quality I am hoping for quotes around £150 per month for 4 years, and Rental seems a little wasteless, also a lot of money.

I am wondering is there any alternatives? Are there services that offer you "time" to use their pianos, like piano rooms?! maybe that's a silly suggestion, but I would like to continue properly studying the piano, so in my eyes digital is just not suitable, the the £300 uprights I can afford just aren't up to the job.
