Bass rent question

I'm wondering what would be a fair price to charge per day for renting my basses... Occasionally people coming from out of town are looking for an instrument to play.

One is a Strunal hybrid and the other is a Kolstein carved bass.

Thanks for your time and input...

I was going to charge 50 euros/day for the hybrid and 75 euros/day for the carved bass.

Does that sound reasonable?

i don't know what euro break down is, but for instance in the States if you are going to rent a bass from a music store its 10% of the cost of the bass used per day..so for instance a $1000.00 bass would be $100.00 for the day. with some sort of contract to protect you from damage or someone completely stealing your instrument.
