How to Get an Instrument
(Instruments should ONLY be rented/purchased at local music store or secondhand; please see Mr. Callicutt for assistance)

Please do NOT purchase instruments online without consulting Mr. Callicutt first; these instruments often break, can not be repaired, and play out of tune, frustrating the student. A quality pre-owned instrument can often be found locally for a comparable price. See Mr. Callicutt for help!
