Our company

Our approach

Our comprehensive hire service allows professional and amateur ensembles alike to access instruments for rehearsals and performances. Our unique approach allows you to use the finest quality instruments from our extensive collection, without having the capital outlays normally associated with purchasing percussion instruments.

We remove the need to spend large sums of money and reduce your need for storage by providing the instruments you require purely for the time that you need them.

We can offer both long and short-term hire facilities, together with delivery and collection to your desired venue.

With our ever increasing range of instruments, we are able to supply some of the more unusual percussion pieces perhaps not found within your own percussion section, such as anvils, wind machines, specialist bells, crotales, thunder sheets, bird calls and many other effects.
