School Orchestra Rentals in Broward, Miami-Dade & Palm Beach
Ready for Orchestra Class
Joining orchestra this year? We help South Florida students get the right instrument, in the right size, from day one. Bring your school’s supply list to our Pompano Beach showroom and we’ll make sure your rental has everything your orchestra director asks for.
Sized by Age & Grade
Most elementary students start on a 1/4 or 1/2 size violin, and middle schoolers often move to 3/4 or full size. Our team measures every student in person so the instrument fits comfortably.
Free Size Exchanges as They Grow
Kids grow fast. When your child is ready for the next size, swap their rental at our showroom. Your rental credit carries over toward the purchase.
Everything on the Supply List
Every rental includes a professionally set up instrument, bow, case and rosin. We also stock the shoulder rests, method books and accessories teachers ask for.

Basic damage protection is included with all instrument rentals. This covers scuffs, dents, and varnish issues, as well as bridge, peg, and bow breaks. Under the basic damage protection, Fiddlershop will repair or replace the broken part for free.
Fiddlershop will apply 70% of the first year’s, and 30% of each subsequent year's monthly rental fees paid (rental credit), towards the retail price of the specific instrument.
If the rented instrument is returned to Fiddlershop and the account is closed, the accumulated rental credit may be applied towards the purchase of a new instrument from Fiddlershop (exclusions may apply). The rental credit expires three (3) months after the rental account is closed and credit from multiple rental accounts may not be combined to purchase a single instrument.
We can ship the rental for a standard two-way shipping fee of $50. So whenever it's time to return your rental, simply request a return label by contacting Fiddlershop.
