Instruments

If you own your own personal instrument:

As a courtesy, we allow members to store their personal instruments in our closets and office between events and rehearsals.  We ask all members to a. carefully and clearly label their instrument, and b. register the make, model, and serial number of their personal instrument with the Equipment Manager.

If you need to borrow an instrument:

Penn Band Instruments are signed out for the academic year via the Equipment Manger.  All individuals who sign out Penn Band-owned instruments are responsible for returning those instruments in May before departing for the summer.

If you need instrument repair:

If you experience mechanical problems with your instrument (personal or borrow) during the course year, speak to Greer or Koosh about the possibility of getting the instrument repaired via Taylor's Music. While your instrument is out to the shop, we will gladly loan you a Penn Band instrument for the interim.

Percussion and Tubas:

All percussion instruments and Tubas are stored in the Drum Closet on their respective stands or in an appropriate case. No ifs, ands, or buts!
