Stores that Rent String Instruments
The following are music stores in our area that have violins, violas, cellos, and basses for
rent.* The String Project recently moved to Palatine, and has traditionally been our primary
rental agent for many years. Hoffman Strings may be more convenient for students on the
north or east side of the district. Quinlan and Fabish in Mt. Prospect and Solo Classic in
Buffalo Grove also have a good working relationship with our school district. Cassandra
Strings is new to District 95, but their instruments are top notch. The other stores would
enjoy your visit: however, we have NOT contacted them as a primary rental agent. Good
luck!
