Used Instrument Sale

Used Instrument Sale

For more than 30 years, State College Music Boosters has coordinated an annual Used Instrument Sale in September. This is a great opportunity for beginning students to own their own instrument and for more advanced students to upgrade instruments at a reasonable cost.

The night before the sale, quality used instruments are accepted on consignment. Teachers are available to help evaluate and price the instruments. During the sale, high school music students are available to help beginners select an appropriate instrument.
