Rent your acoustic guitar, banjo, mandolin, electric guitar, bass, amplifier, djembe, or conga from Old Town School Music Store! All rentals are picked-up and returned at our Lincoln Square storefront 4544 N. Lincoln Ave., anytime during store hours. Feel free to email rentals@oldtownschool.org or call (773) 751-3398 with any questions not addressed in our FAQ below!
When will my card be charged?
Your card will be charged for the rental at checkout on this page, and on the same day each following month until the instrument is returned. Once you've completed checkout, your rental is reserved and waiting for you—stop by anytime during store hours to pick it up, you don't need to wait for your class to start!
Can I apply my rental fees toward the purchase of a new instrument?
Yes! 60% of up to your first four monthly rental payments may be applied toward purchase of a new instrument of the same type upon return of rental instrument. For example, if an acoustic guitar has been rented for six months, upon return, 60% of only the first four $33 monthly payments (approximately $80) may be applied towards purchase of a new acoustic guitar from our current inventory.
What if I break a string?
We make sure our rentals are ready to go, in good condition with strings that will last the duration of your class, but it’s common for strings to snap anyway. If anything is malfunctioning on your instrument, just swing by the store and we’ll get it fixed. We can usually replace a single string while you wait!
