Central BC Canada - Bass rental

Hi,

I am flying to central BC (probably Prince George) for a 2 week tour in mid-July.

Does anyone know of a good place to rent a cheap 3/4 to 7/8 size bass in the central BC area of Canada?

Thanks.

Long & McQuade in Prince George should have a couple double basses for rent. Usually Eastman plywood tops or a Shen or two. This will be the easiest and possibly cheapest route. Maybe contact the store ahead to confirm, incase they can ship a rental bass in from another store if needed. Hope this helps bro!

My real name is Jake de Villiers, but there wasn't enough room in the name box to fit the space...
