Backline rentals for touring bands

Professional drums and amps for tours based in NYC. Skip the hassle of shipping your gear, rent road-ready backline that sounds great and travels well.

Drum rentals

DW drums and hardware with Zildjian cymbals. Quality gear that holds up night after night.

What we stock:

  • DW Performance series kits

  • DW hardware (stands, pedals, thrones)

  • Zildjian A, A Custom, K, and K Custom cymbals

From standard kits to custom configurations, we'll set you up with what your drummer actually needs.

Amp rentals

Bass and guitar amps from Ampeg, Fender, Orange, and Vox. Clean tones to high-gain sounds covered.

Bass amps:

  • Ampeg SVT series heads and cabinets

  • Combo and stack configurations

Guitar amps:

  • Fender (clean and vintage tones)

  • Orange (British crunch and high-gain)

  • Vox (classic British tones)

  • Heads, combos, and matching cabinets

Need a specific wattage or cabinet configuration? We'll dial in the right setup for your venues and sound.

Amp modelers

Kemper Profiler and other amp modeling systems for touring guitarists who need consistent tones without hauling amps.

Why modelers:

  • Compact and flyable, fits in a rack or pedalboard

  • Consistent sound venue to venue

  • Direct to FOH or through a power amp and cab

  • Load your profiles and presets

  • Silent stage options for IEM-heavy productions

Perfect for fly dates, international tours, or productions where stage volume needs to stay controlled.

Road-ready condition

Every piece of backline gets inspected and maintained between rentals. You'll get gear that's clean, functional, and ready for the road.

What that means:

  • Fresh drum heads when needed

  • Amps serviced and tested

  • Hardware that doesn't rattle or slip

  • Road cases for transport

  • Backup tubes and hardware available

No surprises at soundcheck.

Why rent backline

Save money and hassle: Shipping drums and amps costs hundreds (or thousands) per tour leg. Flying internationally? Even worse. Rent locally and avoid the logistics.

Try before you commit: Testing new gear on tour without buying it first.

Fly in light: International bands can base US tours out of NYC without bringing production gear through customs.

Custom configurations

Standard setups don't work for everyone. We'll build custom drum configurations, match specific amp/cab combinations, or configure multi-amp rigs for complex stage plots.

Don't see what you need? We can source it. Tell us what you're looking for and we'll make it happen.

Location and pickup

Right off I-287 in North Jersey. We share a building with Ruby Stage rehearsal facility. Rehearse with your backline before tour starts. No extra trips, no timing headaches.
