PRICING
Every system we build is a custom configuration uniquely reflecting each client’s playing style, ergonomics, signal flow & transportation logistics. We invoice every system build on a “Time & Materials” basis.
Our shop labour rate is $125 per hour, commensurate with many other Music Instrument & Amplifier Repair shops in the Greater Toronto Area and Rig Building Shops across North America.
Our materials are price matched to large volume online retailers of electronic components. We only use premium grade materials by manufacturers such as Evidence, Mogami & Canare Cable, SquarePlug, SwitchCraft, & Neutrik Connectors, Carling Switches, Hammond Enclosures & Transformers.
We sell MIDI Controllers, Audio Switchers, Amp Controllers, Expression Pedals, Line Mixers, Power Supplies, Reactive Loads, IR Hosts and many other “Infrastructure” items for Rack & Pedalboard Systems. We can also acquire any effects or amps you may need to complete your system build.
Every system has some common elements, the general prices for which are listed below in Canadian Dollars & are for comparative value, not intended to reflect an actual system build estimate.
