Fender Rhodes Hire

Pick your rhodes

We stand out because we want you to choose the Rhodes that is right for you. Most hire companies will just give you any old Rhodes in their stock; often not serviced or maintained, and looking worn out. We’re different – you get to pick. Each one of our Rhodes pianos is regulated and set up slightly differently to match the vibe you want. And we check them over before they go out and when they are returned.

Have a look and then a listen to our pianos and pick the one that is right for you:
