Musical Instrument Insurance for SOCAN Members

Written by David Hamilton | Jul 16, 2013 1:47:00 AM

SOCAN members have access to an instrument insurance program as a member benefit.


The program offers very low rates and broad coverage.

Cost: $75 for $5,000 worth of instruments. $150 for $10,000. $2,025 for $200,000 of gear. (subject to change)

The insurance policy will cover all of your instruments and gear for a year.

The insurance program will give you a cheque so that you can replace your instruments and gear if they are:

  • Lost
  • Stolen
  • Dropped
  • Knocked over
  • Burned up in a fire

Your instruments will be covered anywhere in the world. You will be covered if your gear is lost or stolen while travelling.

Obtaining a quote takes 30 seconds by visiting the below link and typing in the value of your gear.

Getting a policy takes a total of five minutes. The whole process can be done online, anytime of the day or night any day of the week.
