Why should I Buy an instrument when I could Rent one? This is probably our most common question. To simply state, renting an instrument really makes no practical sense. The typical music store encourages you to rent for the first year or two in case your child quits. Eighty percent or so do not quit. But lets say your child does after the 1st year... Would you rather have an instrument which is already paid for to resell, or a rent receipt at home and your investment sitting at a music store? With Rummelhoff Music, you pick out an instrument that has been carefully looked over and plays perfectly when it arrives at your door, guaranteed! All of our instruments carry a full six month play condition warranty, and an exchange provision in case your child switches to a different instrument. If your child has been playing a rental unit, then we would encourage you to look around this site and find an instrument for your child. In the long run, you will be happy you did. Your budding musician will thank you for buying their very own musical instrument.
Should my child practice with a music stand? Yes, children actually accomplish 30% more by practicing with a music stand. By using a stand, the student is able to focus their learning without worrying about interruptions, and have their hands free to explore their instrument, and hone their craft.
Should I buy a wood or plastic clarinet? A plastic clarinet is an excellent choice for grammer school years with the understanding that into high school, wood clarinets are usually preferred. Both instruments play similarly, usually High School teachers ask the students to upgrade to a wood clarinet because of its ability to hold a better tone.
Is it easier to learn on an electric, or acoustic guitar? It really makes no difference, you should learn on the guitar that you feel fits your playing ability better.
I thought I saw a flute that had a curved mouthpiece, was that a mistake when it was made? No, this is not a mistake with the manufacturing. A curved mouthpiece is necessary when the length of the flute causes problems. Usually in Bass and Alto flutes, or flutes for very small beginners. The head curves back on itself (like and umbrella handle) effectively bringing the keys closer to the player.
