You insure your car, house and pet…

You insure your car, house and pet…

So you have home insurance, travel insurance,  car insurance, pet insurance, even your teeth can be insured, but is your keyboard at home insured?

Do you really think about it when you pick up your keyboard and move it?

Since the sun started shining I have been taking my keyboard out into the garden and spending time outside with it.

Now, when you combine a nicely laid patio, a dog and a £3000 Yamaha keyboard - the chances of an accident happening is highly likely. We all assume that home insurance will cover any accidents, but you must make your insurance company aware of any high value items. If you gig with your keyboard make sure that you have suitable instrument insurance. If you drop your keyboard or worse, it is stolen, you need to make sure that your precious investment is covered for repair or replacement.

So, the next time you move your keyboard one inch, make sure it is insured! you never know.
