Our gear is road ready. Apparently, it’s also stunt-ready. 🤘😂

When the gig calls for a little more air time, our Ampeg SVT-CL + 8x10 didn’t flinch.

One massive rock & roll leap from the Suicidal Tendencies camp, and the rig was still standing tall.

Backline Now: Built for the road. Built to take a beating. Built for rock & roll.

Big night out for the Backline Now crew! 🎹🔥

We were stoked to provide the backline for Andy Grammer, and even more stoked to see our upright piano shell make its way onto the big stage with the full band!

From the warehouse to showtime—there’s nothing quite like seeing the gear all come together when the lights go up. 🎶

Another great show in the books! 🤘

So awesome to work with the folks at Elite Sound Events, Thanks for bringing us along for the show

🤘 Today in Music History... On this day in 1987, Guns N' Roses dropped Appetite for Destruction... and rock music was never the same.

"Welcome to the Jungle"
"Paradise City"
"Sweet Child O' Mine"

Not bad for a debut album. 😎 It went on to become the best-selling debut album in U.S. history, proving that sometimes all you need is killer songs, enough Marshall stacks to rattle the walls, and a little controlled chaos.

Around here, we're always happy to help artists make a little noise. 🎸🔊

🎙️ Today in Music History... On this day in 1975, Bob Marley & The Wailers lit up London's Lyceum Theatre for the first of two legendary nights. Those shows became the iconic Live! album—and gave the world one of the greatest live recordings ever: "No Woman, No Cry."

Proof that sometimes all you need is a stage, a killer band, and a little reggae magic. 🎸🔥

Here's to the shows that become history... and to the crews behind the scenes making sure they happen.

🎷🍷 The stage is set, the backline is dialed, and we're ready to roll for the Missouri Wine & Jazz Festival in Kansas City!

From drum kits to amps and everything in between, our crew has everything prepped and ready for the artists to do what they do best. We handle the gear... they bring the magic. 🤘

Here's a behind-the-scenes look before the first note hits. If you're out at the festival, grab a glass, catch some incredible music, and know there's a whole lot of hard work happening behind the curtain to make it all look easy.

🎶 Today in Music History 🎶 On this day in 2000, Coldplay released Parachutes—the album that introduced the world to Yellow, Trouble, Shiver, and Don't Panic.

Over 13 million copies later, it's safe to say... people definitely panicked when they couldn't get tickets. 😏

Whether you love it or still insist Coldplay "changed after the first album," Parachutes became one of the defining records of the 2000s and launched one of the biggest bands on the planet.

🎹 Fun fact: Behind every arena anthem is a stage full of gear that has to work the first time, every time. That's our kind of history.

🎤 What's your favorite track from *Parachutes*?

🎸 Gear Spotlight: Fender American Professional II Jazz Bass V

Five strings. Endless groove.

Our Fender American Professional II Jazz Bass V delivers legendary Fender tone with V-Mod II pickups, a fast slim "C" neck, and a low B that hits like it should.

Whether you're playing rock, country, pop, gospel, or funk, this bass is stage-ready and rider-approved.

Available now from Backline Now.

Because nobody ever said, "I wish the bass player had less tone." 😎

🎶 Today in Music History... On this day in 1990, New Kids on the Block hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with "Step By Step," kicking off a three-week run at the top. The album of the same name also climbed to No. 1 in the UK.

Love them or pretend you didn't... chances are you still know every word. 😏

🎤 Fun fact: Those arena shows didn't happen by magic—someone had to tune the drums, wire the keyboards, set the guitars, and make sure the show was ready before the first scream from the crowd.

That's the backstage magic we live for.

🎸 Today in Music History 1969 — Led Zeppelin takes over the Civic Auditorium in Honolulu for one of their early Hawaii shows.

The Honolulu Advertiser said it best:
“They sounded better than their Atlantic album.”

Nothing beats a packed room, a loud stage, and that moment when everything just clicks live.

🎸 Today in Music History 🎸 In 1956, Johnny Cash released “I Walk the Line,” his first No. 1 country hit and a song that became a timeless classic.

Fun fact: the signature sound was inspired by guitar runs played backwards on a tape recorder while Cash was stationed in Germany. 🔥
