A piper friend of mine asked me about companies that insure musical instruments. Anyone (in the US) recommend a company? His homeowner's insurance is of no help in this.

- Tell us something.: I am interested in the uilleann pipes and their typical -and broader- use. I have been composing and arranging for the instrument lately. I enjoy unusual harmonic combinations on the pipes. I use the pipes to play music of other cultures.

Re: Instrument insurance
Here's a link to a discussion dating back to 2003 about musical instrument insurance:

Regulations and companies may have changed, hopefully there is something of use there.

Re: Instrument insurance
Marsh Affinity Gp/Seabury & Smith offers Instrument Ins to AFM members (of which I am one) at a special rate. Everything I use on a daily basis is completely covered, for a very affordable yearly premium.

Give a man a wooden reed and he'll play in the driest of weather,
Teach a man to make a wooden reed,
and the both of ye will go insane!
