I am in with a crowd of guitarists and their teachers and among ten of them, we hear how they want to play small venues but don't have the time to learn all the gear rigging up. They just want to show the sound guy their box which we have put together for them before. They do a soundcheck and play. In the end, they disconnect and just pile cables back into the box and like a flight case, carry it away. They can repeat this simply by just opening it up again. It is labeled for ease of connectivity.
It has:
You can use a real amp or use a laptop computer on top of the rig to run your profile. If you need a power amp module then we can add a simple one to the rig. They are smaller these days and can easily fit into a cushioning box in the tray. You can put microphones into this box when transporting the rig. When you want the power amp you simply take it out behind the rig and connect the amplifier output to its input and from the output to the speakers. You can have a power stage of up to 700W on the 6U case. If you need more then we recommend a power amp rack and smaller tray space.
So at the end of the gig each and every time we get not just the guitarist but one person from the audience who asks us to give us a price on the rig. We so far have been quoting the cost of materials only because we know each other. However, the audience buyers have sometimes said they were willing to pay a thousand for it, someone to make that for them, explain it to them, and let them take it to gig with or rehearse with. I say half downpayment if you want a custom one or we just build what you see here and you tell us how you want to use it and we will label it and give you instructions on how to do that. We will test the system out.
So anyway do think a thousand is too cheap a deal? or about right for this assembly?
It has:
- A 6U flight case enclosed design.
- A power conditioner strip to power the band.

- A sliding tray at the bottom for labelled cables.
- One or two microphones already in the tray connected up to the audio interface.
