Purchasing an Instrument
Buying a musical instrument is an investment, much like buying a car. While large department stores and eBay carry inexpensive instruments, deals that seem too good to be true often are. Unfortunately, many of these instruments are of poor quality and will result in frustration for a young musician. The following is a list of the best value instruments for middle school students. These instruments provide quality sound and durability without costing a fortune. Instruments marked "Student" are intermediate-level and will meet a student's needs through high school. Instruments marked "Professional are typically more expensive, but can last a lifetime with proper care and maintenance. A good quality used instrument would be a much better investment than a poor quality instrument that is brand new.
