*please note: all of our instruments are regularly maintained and in playable condition, but if there’s something you are counting on for a session it never hurts to reserve it in advance. we’re happy to give some extra love, wherever needed.
also we now have access to a vast lending library of vintage amps, outboard, and pedals from a nearby comrade. most rentals are approx $50/item and the time is flexible. if you want an OG space echo or Princeton Reverb, Vox, Marshall, etc. just ask and we’ll see what we can do!
