Instrument amplifier rental

Rent an instrument amplifier for the right tone

A good instrument amplifier decides how your guitar, bass or keyboard sounds on stage. For a one-off show, a rehearsal or as backline at a festival, renting is often smarter than carrying your own. Anyone who rents an instrument amplifier from SpeakerVerhuur.nl gets professional equipment, a plug-and-play setup and personal advice on the right amp. We deliver in Amsterdam and the region.

Guitar, bass and keyboard amplifiers

Each instrument calls for its own type of amplifier. A guitar amplifier colours the tone and provides distortion and effects, a bass amplifier is built for solid low end without distorting, and a keyboard amplifier gives a clean, flat reproduction across the whole range. We match the amplifier to what you play.

Combo or head-and-cabinet?

A combo has the amplifier and speaker in one cabinet and is handy and compact for rehearsals and smaller shows. A head-and-cabinet separates the amplifier from the speaker and delivers more power and flexibility for larger stages. We advise which setup suits your music and the room.

For which occasions?

You rent instrument amplifiers for shows, band rehearsals, studio recordings, festivals and as backline you set up for guest musicians. Even when your own amp is broken or too heavy to carry, renting is the answer. That way you are always on stage with reliable, great-sounding equipment.

Complete set or individual equipment

You rent a complete set or individual equipment from us. Want a complete backline with guitar, bass and keyboard amps plus cables? Then we put together a matched set. Playing yourself and just need one amplifier? Then you get exactly that. So you never rent more than you need.

Advice on power

The power you need depends on the room and whether you are amplified through the PA. In a small room a light combo is enough, while on a large stage you want more power or a head-and-cabinet. Tell us the instrument, style and location and we advise, with no obligation, on the right amplifier.

Setup: plug-and-play

Our amplifiers are plug-and-play: plug in your instrument, switch on and play. With a complete set we include the right cables. Want to be fully unburdened for a backline on location? Then setup in Amsterdam and the region can be arranged.

Delivery, collection and reserving

Reserve online or by phone. You collect the amplifier yourself or have it delivered in Amsterdam and the region. We schedule delivery and collection around your show or rehearsal. Book in good time, as amplifiers are reserved quickly at weekends and during festival season.
