Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to rent a violin in Wellington?
Prelude has violin rentals starting from $13.80/month. Pricing depends on the instrument tier (student, intermediate, or professional) and your chosen rental plan. Longer commitments offer better monthly rates. All rentals include delivery to Wellington and throughout New Zealand.
Do you deliver violins to Wellington?
Yes — Prelude delivers instruments to Wellington and everywhere in New Zealand. Most rentals include free nationwide delivery. Your violin arrives professionally packed and ready to play, typically within a few business days of signing up.
What size violin should I rent?
Violin sizing depends on the player's arm length. Children typically start on a 1/16 or 1/8 size and move up as they grow. Prelude offers free size exchanges, so when your child outgrows their current violin, we'll swap it for the next size at no extra cost. Your teacher or school can help measure for the right fit.
Can I return the violin if I stop playing?
Absolutely. Prelude's rental plans are flexible — you can return your violin at the end of any rental period with no penalty. If you decide to upgrade or swap to a different instrument, we make that easy too. There are no long-term lock-in contracts.
Where can I find a violin teacher in Wellington?
