Out of the 6 different music stores recommended by my daughter's teacher, their rental pricing is…read moremid-range and comparable to others. I remember String House decades ago when I used to play so I knew they were reputable. They also carried the book and CD that we needed to purchase. Look for the white house with the bright red door on Monroe Ave. Parking is in the back. It was a short wait while they finished with other customers. The rental process was easy and quick. My daughter was already measured, but the associate did a quick double check and tuned the violin. It came with the basics - violin, bow, case, rosin, and a nametag. The price includes insurance and repairs during the rental period, which is a school year or 12 months. We didn't have to buy a shoulder rest because sponges usually work fine for the little ones, but it fit her well so we bought one, in her favorite color pink. Seamless rental process and so beautiful to see the instruments displayed all along the ceiling. It was nostalgic!

Chillest music store I've been to in a long time. I went in hungry just to grab a gig bag that I…read moreneeded, but ended up staying hours playing with the guitars and basses. They have mostly used gear, a lot of guitars and basses, a few drum kits, some synths, and a bunch of rack gear. Generally I felt like the prices for guitars and bases were pretty high, but they seemed well taken care of, and I bet it's the kind of place too can negotiate. The rack gear seemed like a good value. I'd recommend them as your first stop if you are shopping for an instrument.
