EVENT & TOUR HIRE
For the touring instrumentalist, we can provide professional standard instruments for hire. With the ever-increasing freight limitations on planes, we understand the logistical issues associated with transporting instruments. Customers can choose from our three different hire levels; Standard, High Grade and Master Level hires. All instruments are fully set up to the highest level and can be adjusted to suit the player’s requirements.
Please contact us at enquiries@atelierpuglisi.com for further information about our event hire program and availability.
LONG-TERM INSTRUMENT HIRE
DOUBLE BASSES & CELLOS
We have an instrument hire program perfect for players or students who are still working out if playing an instrument is for them. We provide instruments that are set up to the best possible standard.
Another great opportunity with our long-term hire Basses is for electric Bassists looking to expand their skill sets. There is a constant demand for Double Bassists so if you are looking for some extra work this is the instrument for you. Cross over to the dark side today.
You may choose from a range of hire cellos or double basses, depending on availability, and prices range from from $69 p/m for a cello and $119 p/m for a fully set up, easy-to-play double bass.
Instruments must be rented for a minimum of 3 months and will come with a case and bow. A pickup can also be fitted for an additional fee.
No bond is required for the rental process, just an advanced payment for the cost of a bow rehair, and there are also several ways to arrange your monthly rental payment.
Long-term hire is only available for double bass and cello at this stage, including most fractional sizes.
Please contact us at enquiries@atelierpuglisi.com for further information about our rental program and availability.
