so what is thesoundparcel exactly?
we connect gear enthusiasts with today's most innovative manufacturers and yesterday's most in demand vintage music equipment, through a variety of rental and try before your buy programs.

but rentals have been done before...
true, there are a few folks offering pedal rentals. in addition to guitar effects we'll have a broad selection of synths and other electronic gadgets. we hope to have a some eurorack available by january 2017 as well!

if you've ever wanted to try some gear before purchase... stop by and take a look.

thanks!

Woo Hoo, PA!

mrdave1981, I can't message you back because, apparently, you've disabled PM receipt.

Yeah, this's a fine place to make this announcement. You may be a member here for a few years, but, with only a few posts, nobody here really knows who you are.

Need more fuzz.

Instrument (non-school band), backline, and rental for studio gear, among other stuff, has been around for ages.

Nothing new under the sun.

Unless you're bringing back modulation or porch monkey.

Will your shop have an 18+ back room where I can rent the naughty pedals?

As a gear enthusiast I've been swapping equipment on eBay for over a decade. When it comes to lesser known small build companies, tabletopsynths, and other similar electronics... I personally had not found a similar service. That's what spurned this idea and turned it into a reality.

Yes... There are a few companies offering pedal rentals (thus the newish)... But what we are trying to do is fill a whole in the market that does exist today. May not be for everybody, and that is cool...

With that said, we all know there is a big difference between watching an inspiring demo on YouTube vs plugging it in and actually using something within the context of our own setup. Whether someone is a hobbyist, pro, or somebody just looking to try something new rental is a fantastic option to assist in first hand investigation.
