We do quite a bit of gear hire for short term use - gigs or sessions. All our hires are Dry Hire, which means the hirers collect and return the equipment themselves. Payment is on collection, and terms and conditions apply - as usual.
We have an HK Audio Elias rig - two tops, and two subs - giving an RMS rating of 1.5K sustainable, enough for 400 people seated or 200 for a rock venue. This is a high quality system with clear crisp sound. It comes with a pair of monitors, a 16-channel desk, two mics, stands and leads. This is good value at only ££80 for the night.
Monitors can be hired at £20 each per night. Mics - with stand and 10m lead are £10 per night. Two DI boxes are £10 per night. Stagebox £15 per night. A drum mic set (8 mics) with stands and leads is £30 per night.
I also have a basic lighting rig - four NJD Spectre lights on two stands with controller, to give a quite impressive display for just £40 per night.
Backline is also available - we have a MarkBass 400watt head and 1x15" cab and a Kustom 72 Coupe all valve guitar combo. These are £25 each per night. Both are high quality items with a great sound - a week's hire (Monday to Monday) is available for the equivalent of four day's hire.
We also have a Pearl Export drum outfit with Sabian XS cymbals. This is £40 per night. Sticks not included.
Our current offer is the HK PA + Lights for just £100 for the night.

If needed, a monitor for this would be an extra £10. This will do a gig for up to about a 100 people and is a nice sounding rig.

We can also supply a range of other gear. We have a Yamaha 16-track digital recording studio for hire. This is a hard disk unit with a built in CD burner ideal for demos.

A full week (Monday morning to Monday morning) is £100.
Other gear we can hire include : Yamaha bass £20 per night, Yamaha CPX-5 acoustic £25 per night, PRS Custom 22 guitar £40 per night Fender Strat £25 per night. Any of these can be on a weekly hire (Monday to Monday) for the equivalent of four night's hire.
We also have a range of recording desks which can be hired. These are usually negotiated according to the length of time required - eg Soundtracs Topaz 24 channel for two-week hire total cost £100, Alto L20 for one week £30.
We now have a Line6 Pod V2 or a Blackstar Dual valve pedal (as used by Belmont Studios) on hire for £10 per night each or £40 per week, if you need extra sounds for that important session.
We also have a Technics P50 stage piano for £30 per night, a Korg X-2 synth for £20 a night, and an Alesis QS-6 synth for £20 per night for studio or live use.
We hire individual live mics, and also have a few studio mics - an MXL large diaphragm condenser with stand and pop shield for £20 per night or £50 per week, and a pair of pencil condensers with stands and leads at £20 per night, £50 per week. An eight piece drum mic kit with stands and leads is £30 per night, £70 for the week in the studio. An AKG C-1000 condenser is £10 per night, an NX-8 kick mic+stand £10 per night.
Package deals can be arranged, and we can arrange bulk prices for longer term hires, or regular users.
