🔄 30 days to return. Deadline: Aug 25.

Exchanges ship free with a prepaid label, but straight returns for a refund don't, so if you're just sizing between two similar products, ask for an exchange rather than a return-and-rebuy to skip the shipping cost.

About Music & Arts

Band and orchestra instrument rentals for school kids are a big part of what keeps Music & Arts running, alongside a retail side selling guitars, keyboards, and accessories both online and through its network of physical stores. It's owned by the same parent as Guitar Center, which shows in overlapping brands and financing options. Instrument rentals can be returned anytime through a separate rental return process, distinct from the standard 30-day retail return window for purchased gear. Just know return shipping isn't covered on regular purchases, only exchanges get a free prepaid label.
