Their rental plans are designed to give your child the opportunity to begin an instrument with only a minimal investment. Dealers may have differences in their lease-purchase plans. Shop carefully for the plan that best suits your needs. You can purchase or obtain an instrument from other sources. Please use this list as a guide and check mouthpieces. No students will be turned away from not having the “right brand”. Please feel free to contact Mrs. Nalley at Belton Middle School or Mrs. Flowers at Lake Belton Middle School if you have any questions on an instrument to purchase outside of a instrument music dealer. Remember, it’s the instrument condition and the mouthpiece, not always the age of the instrument that is important. Please do not let students play the instrument and/or mouthpieces before they have had instructions. This simple precaution is so that we can teach students the proper way to assemble and care for their instrument. Please help us help you protect your investment. Also, improper playing habits that are hard to fix may begin. Online resources to purchase supplies: www.wwbw.com www.music123.com www.amazon.com
