These musicians took the leap and discovered their sound. Imagine what you could create with the right gear in your hands!

As someone who can't afford expensive pedals, this service is amazing. I love guitar pedals, and being able to try out ones I usually couldn't is fantastic! Great service overall.

BuyOrBorrow has been fantastic. I got to try out an SP 404 before deciding to buy. It's a great way to test gear before making a big purchase. Highly recommended for any musician. Great customer service too. Swap your TV subscriptions for this instead.

I've dealt with local gear rental providers in Austin and found them to be a hassle, with lots of red tape. Not so with BuyOrBorrow Music! Signing up was quick, and within a week, I had my first Pro tier gear in hand. The team at B.O.B.M. made it so much easier and more reasonable than dealing with security deposits and extensive proof of identification. When a piece of gear was delayed, they promptly sent another from my list. This is the go-to spot for gear. Sign up today!

BoBMusic is a wonderful company with great products and support. I love trying new pedals and gear, but my budget rarely allows for high-end instruments. BoB makes it possible for me.

I've been using Buy or Borrow Music for about a year. I've tried a lot of gear, some of which I love and use often, and some I don't, which I just send back. This has saved me so much money. Currently, I'm purchasing an MPC One through them, and the experience has been awesome. They even expedited a piece of gear for an upcoming gig. What a team!

I've been using BoB since they first started. It's allowed me to try out great gear that I couldn't afford or wasn't sure about buying without testing. Highly recommend!

Great company and awesome customer service. I've been a member for about six months and love this service!

BuyOrBorrow Music is a game-changer for any musician. I've tried out so many pedals and gear that I would never have been able to afford otherwise. Their customer service is top-notch, always ready to help. Highly recommend this service!

The ability to test high-end gear before buying is invaluable. BuyOrBorrow Music made it easy to find the right equipment for my needs without breaking the bank. Their support team is friendly and efficient. Love this service!

I've been using BuyOrBorrow Music for about six months and it's been fantastic. The variety of gear available is impressive, and the process is smooth and hassle-free. Great way to try before you buy. Highly recommended!

This service has been a lifesaver for my music projects. I’ve tested out several pieces of gear that I otherwise couldn’t afford. The subscription is worth every penny. The team at BuyOrBorrow Music is always supportive and responsive.

BuyOrBorrow Music is my go-to for trying out new gear. The selection is great, and the convenience is unmatched. I’ve saved so much money by using this service instead of buying gear outright. Excellent customer service too!
