Back line Rental in Maine?

[Pat Harris]

Fellow bassists,

I'm traveling out to New England in November and I can't for the life of me find any places that where I can rent some gear for a few days.

I'm hoping to rent (or borrow) a guitar amp: Something in the Fender department with tubes.

A bass cabinet. Preferably a 4x10 by Eden or SWR or similar.

Anyone know of any businesses that do this sort of thing? Google hasn't been very helpful. I'm flying into Boston, and don't have a problem getting stuff from there and then driving it up to Maine.

Thanks for any and all information.

In Portland, Buckdancer's

In Bangor, Northern Kingdom

Where are you playing? With whom?

Thanks so much for the links, Sam.

The three "big" shows I'm playing are:
November 19 in Hartford, CT
November 26-27 in Brewer, ME

I'm going to be playing with my own project which has a folk/Americana vibe to it. The singer and I played in a bluegrass band back in the day, she lives in ME, I live in TX and we've been collaborating to put out a new album and to start playing shows with our own material. Full info can be seen at my website: www.gpatharris.com

Thanks again for the help.

I was in a band about 5 years ago that rented a complete backline from here: http://www.daddys.com/local/stores/s...?storeState=ME

Thanks for the info. I'll check into that as well.

Brewer's right across the river from Bangor. Sounds like Northern Kingdom would be the place to start.

If you want a bite while you're driving through Portland let me know!

BEST, SAM
