How to use this site

This is a step-by-step guide to show you how to obtain an online quote and ”create your own cover’.
Get a quote
The first step is to indicate the total replacement value of your instrument(s) – that’s the price it would normally cost new and undiscounted, from a music store and also including VAT (if you have second-hand equipment, we will replace new for old in most circumstances). If you have a vintage or rare instrument, then the value should be what a reputable dealer will indicate in a professional valuation.

We will then give you the lowest premium to insure this value for use anywhere in the UK.

Create your own cover
Now you can start to add in the cover options that suit your needs.

Area cover
This option allows you to specify the geographical area that you require cover for:
In the UK only
In the UK and EU (includes 30 days worldwide in any policy year)
Anywhere in the world at any time.

In vehicle cover
This option covers your instrument(s) against theft from a vehicle. There are some important security conditions, so please take the time to read them.

Breakdown
This option allows you to cover instruments and equipment against mechanical or constructional failure.

Public liability
This option (also called third party liability) covers you against claims made against you should you cause injury or damage to property.
You can choose from 3 different levels of cover:
£1 million
£2 million
£5 million

You can also extend this cover to include other people who perform with you. [more info]

The public liability option also includes personal accident cover, which pays out an amount of money should you suffer an injury whilst playing or using your instrument. [more info].

Reduce your premium
If you want to reduce the premium, you can choose to pay a voluntary excess. This will usually save you around 12.5 per cent on the premium.

You have now ”created your own cover’!
You now have 3 options:
You can save your quote and have it emailed to you for future use.
Continue through the application and take out cover online.
Spend the next hour hunting the web for another quote!

How to pay
Once you’ve completed the application process, just choose how you wish to pay:
Online – by single payment by credit card
Online – over 12 monthly instalments

That’s it – you’re covered!
Within 3 working days we will send your welcome letter and confirmation schedule to you, which will list all the equipment insured and confirm all the components of the cover you have selected. You will need to download the policy wording via a link in the confirmation email or whilst completing your application.
Don’t forget – you have 28 days to change your mind!
