Promotional financing is offered for new Buffet Crampon and Backun clarinets. These financing options may only be used for clarinet purchases, not for RMS Artist Overhauls or repairs.
Minimum monthly payments are required. Minimum payments may or may not actually pay off the purchase within the promotional period, so do your math carefully and keep track of your payments.
No interest will be charged on the promotional purchase if you pay the purchase amount in full within the promotional period. If you do not, interest will be charged on the purchase from the purchase date. Depending on purchase amount, promotion length and payment allocation, the required minimum monthly payments may or may not pay off purchase by end of promotional period. Regular account terms apply to non-promotional purchases and, after promotion ends, to promotional balance. For new accounts: Purchase APR is 29.99%. Minimum interest charge is $2. Existing cardholders should see their credit card agreement for their applicable terms. Subject to credit approval. Late fees apply if payment is late.
12.99% APR with your choice of term length. Monthly payments of $22.75 per $1,000 borrowed at 12.99% APR for 60 months. Subject to credit approval. No penalty for early payoff.
If you’re purchasing a Buffet Crampon clarinet, the Synchrony Bank 18-month 0% interest plan gives you the longest interest-free repayment window. For Backun purchases, Synchrony offers 6- or 12-month 0% interest plans with a processing fee. If you’d prefer a longer repayment timeline or want to choose your own term length, United Midwest Savings Bank offers plans up to 60 months at 12.99% interest on any new clarinet in the RMS catalog.
Yes, the trial process requires a deposit equal to the price of the most expensive instrument being sent, plus one-way shipping. Contact RMS at info@rodriguezmusical.com or 470-545-9803 so we can apply your loan to your trial deposit.
Interest will be charged on the purchase from the original purchase date at a 29.99% APR. This applies to any remaining balance, not just the amount left over. Making only the minimum monthly payment may not be enough to pay off the full balance before the promotional period ends, so plan your payments accordingly.
Financing is available for new clarinet purchases only. RMS Artist Overhauls and repairs are not eligible for financing at this time.
Both Synchrony Bank and United Midwest Savings Bank perform a credit check as part of the application process. A credit inquiry may have a small, temporary effect on your score. Contact the respective bank for details on their specific credit evaluation process.
