TRBboy Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Just wondered if anyone had any srecommmendations for Instrument insurance? It would be to cover my gear when out gigging and in transit to/from. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubs Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Used to get mine with Endsleigh when I was a student - pretty comprehensive insurance up to about £5k worth of stuff for about £40 a year IIRC. Amazingly, mines now covered on our contents insurance - specifically listed and didn't cost much extra - think we're with More Than, have to check.

Evil Undead Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I've got mine with Endsleigh. But I doubt I will renew it. Basically, it doesn't cover ANYTHING. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle psychosis Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 My guitars are insured through Allianz musical. If insuring through your contents insurance read the small print VERY carefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaypup Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) Musicguard Insurance covers your gear in the house, at gigs, in a vehicle and also includes £5m of public liability - very useful! The only downside is that when you add new items/remove them it costs £7 quid a time which can add up to a lot if you're selling/buying gear as much as most basschat members.....

Serious question as the acting union (Equity) require you to have two contracts before you can join. I gig on the pub scene but wouldn't say I'm a pro!

jmsjabb Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Not that I know of. Colleague has membership and gigs 3 times a year. No deals, but a lot of equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
