Tim from HornHire loves his music and has been involved in the music industry in one form or another all his life.
Tim established HornHire, partly because of his love of wind instruments, but mainly because he wanted to give everyone the opportunity to learn a musical instrument without having to purchase one outright. He understands such an outlay can be difficult to finance, especially if it is for a child or student who is still deciding which instrument they would like to pursue.
Hiring an instrument gives the student the chance to really see if this is something they really want to do before making a commitment to buy. The instrument that is hired can be purchased using up to a year's worth of hire fees. (Horn Hire brand instruments only). The amount paid in that time is simply deducted from the purchase price. You can choose to hire an instrument for a year, or pay by the month.
Tim also has many years of experience repairing and servicing instruments, and has a wind instrument repair workshop, his fulltime job. So you can rest assured that each instrument is in perfect working order and tested to the highest of standards before being delivered to you.
