We used these guys to help facilitate a large business meeting last week and their service was nothing short of amazing. We loved working with them to assist us with our audio and video needs. I loved their large screen and projector which made it really easy for our group of 70 plus people to stay engaged as we held our meeting at the Hotel Van Zandt in Austin, Tx Thank you from your friends at CDK Digital and the Nissan Digital Marketing Consulting Team.

This is THE BEST place to rent any music equipment from. They have great customer service and are extremely friendly. Even on busy return days (Mondays and Tuesdays) they are mindful and quick to get their customers taken care of. The staff there are willing to give their expert recommendations of what equipment to try. This location has never steered me wrong and are always AWESOME!!!

Easy to rent gear with no hassle and no hidden fees. Huge inventory gives you plenty of options even if what you want is already on lease. To top it, the staff is extremely helpful and friendly. Great spot!

Ive been renting and buying equipment from Rock n Roll rentals for over a decade now and have always had an awesome experience. Whether for live sound or studio work they always have great gear at reasonable prices and they really know their stuff. I just wish they would give lessons on how to unkink cables (they way they do it has to be witchcraft)! Top notch guys :)

This place is good for what it is, rental of entry level gear for a low price. The gear is in solid condition and pretty well maintained. This is not a true pro rental house such as Ilios or Big House and as such has its quirks. Cables are coiled/stored in such as way that makes them not lay flat on the floor as opposed to the industry standard over/under method. As far as tech the employees dont know much so you should go in knowing what you need.

Ive rented various equipment from these guys over the past 3-4 years (karaoke machines, speakers, lights, etc.) and every time theyve been an absolute pleasure to do business with. Rental prices are surprisingly cheap and they give a generous amount of time for the rentals. Everyone in the place is helpful, glad to answer questions about equipment, and offer awesome suggestions about what would be needed or not for an event. All their equipment was professional grade and worked perfectly to make my parties amazing (mostly halloween parties).Ill definitely continue going back ANYTIME I have a party.One note: I believe they start rentals on Tuesday mornings so if you want first dibs on their best stuff (if you know what you need of course), Id recommend getting there early that day.

The staff is super helpful, they have a great selection for all my DJ needs, and the prices are fair. Whatever your music needs are, I recommend going here.

Review №12

Good prices and the staff is pretty nice and knowledgeable. However, be sure to double-check the equipment as soon as you get it. They are rentals and they have a tendency to go out. Last thing you want when youre working in event is a cracking speaker. Also be prepared to stand in line for a very long time while picking up your equipment. The contract they have you fill out to start an account are fairly long and take awhile to get through.

I am primarily a guitarist, but once a month, I play a gig on bass. Im able to rent a bass rig for about $9 at Rock n Roll Rentals. The staff are knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and I find the whole exchange pleasant and easy.

They are extremely friendly and accommodating, and even more so once they are able to determine their equipment will be in good hands. Unfortunately, we did have a small mix up with our production companys own sound equipment vs what we rented. Once the problem was discovered, they were quick to get the issue resolved. I would no doubt rent from them again, as well as recommend them to others! Thank you again Zack(hopefully I spelled your name properly), for being patient with Thad and myself. Even more so for helping to make things right and getting things squared away so quickly!! You really were awesome! Honestly, everyone there was great.Sarah JableckiGrand Ol Production Co

I have a B.S. in audio engineering, but dont use that experience for my full time career, so I dont always have access to the equipment that Id normally use for projects. Ive used RnR Rentals many times over the years for personal recording projects, audio and lighting for house parties, and for weekend church retreats. We also hired them to set up and operate live audio at our wedding, and they did a great job! The staff is friendly and knowledgable, and they always have something in stock that will accomplish what Im looking to do.Theyre also great if you want to audition gear before making a purchase. This is something I havent had the chance to do yet, but Im looking forward to renting some Warm Audio gear for a week to see if I want to buy in. Their pedal of the month club is also a great idea that could be fun to try one of these days!

Great selection of quality gear. Manager Eric was super helpful. Full selection of Fender, Gretsch and other guitars for monthly, weekly and other length rentals. Also PA, drums etc. Recommended.

This place is great for rentals, but their rent to own process is a little on the dubious side. I wanted to finish paying off something I was renting at one point and was unable to get in touch with their manager or whoever it was to deal with it. They basically make it really hard to finish out the stack so they can milk the finance charges, and while Im not guaranteed certain on it the way they go about the final payment process is suspicious to me given the experience. I mean, why cant a normal employee do this for me ?? Theres no logical reason for that, given that normal employees can setup new rent to own scenarios with nothing more than a head nod and a barcode scan, but they cant let me give them my credit card to finish paying something off ?? WTF>

I rented a video camera for a week. At the end of the week I called and told them I wanted it for another week. At the end of that week they called me and told me I needed to bring it back. I asked if I could just keep it for a month since we were still using it they said no you have to bring it back. Not only did they charge me for the extra week which was more than the month rental but they charged me a late fee on top of it! I have never run into this at any rental place Ive ever used. Crazy

Great place to rent equipment. You can actually rent a whole pa system; pick it up on Wednesday and return it Monday as part of their weekend rate. Great staff are very helpful. They rent almost everything you need to host an event.

Got there early enough that it wasnt too busy. It was also a Friday. Theyre friendly and give you a rundown of what to expect along the river and which directions to take. Only thing I didnt like were the tubes. They only have black tubes and they are ferociously hot. Im pretty sure I got more burned by my skin being in contact with the tube than the sun itself. Besides that, they dont have cup holders or handles but I could have overlooked that if it werent for scorching skin and having to splash water on the tube. Definitely bring your own.

R&R has a huge selection of lighting and audio equipment at really cheap prices. We use them often, and it’s definitely a “get what you pay for” place. Everything they do is completely manual (pen and paper to write up an order, then they type it into the computer later), so anticipate at least an hour to pickup anything more than a small order. Rentals can be picked up on Tuesdays (busy day) and there is no way to make a reservation ahead of time, unless you are picking up one of their packages. I don’t think I’ve ever walked out the door in less than 45 mins. My recent rental took 2.5 hours to get out the door. They do a decent job with keeping up the gear, but I’ve had multiple rentals go out with outputs not working or broken parts. For the price you pay, it’s easy to overlook a lot of the shortcomings. I just wish they’d switch over to a barcode system (tons of inexpensive options out there) which would help speed up the process.

Rented a bunch of UV lights, last second on a Monday ... and everyone at Rock and Roll rentals was AWESOME. Great prices on rental of DMX lighting, extremely knowledgeable staff.This is now my go-to for renting lighting and audio equipment. They also have an awesome collection of acoustic and electric guitars, midi instruments, sequencers as well.Keeping Austin Rockin n Rollin!

Review №62

I havent been wowd by the staff. Not extremely friendly or all around knowledgeable.Update: (05/07/18) Rented a Shure Wireless Mic and Rapco DB-2. This was overkill for the application I was needing to use the equipment in, however it wasnt too bad of an experience. I still felt more confused by the staff more than anything. They seemed unable to listen to what I said visualize and find the best equipment for the application. As well as, I went to return the equipment today and I showed up 24 min before they open. They werent friendly and told me to go away till 11:00. The least they could do is invite a paying customer into the store during this summer heat and offer them some water. Does it kill them to have a little customer service?

Produced over $500k in insurance docs and they still wouldnt rent a keyboard without $3000 deposit.Worst group to attempt to rent from. The manager was very disrespectful after wasting an hour of my time to produce personal information that wasnt even helpful.I would not recommend wasting your time to be judged by musician has beens that are jealous that you have cool gigs.GFYS RockNRollThe owner reached out to me to discuss these issues. I responded and offered a phone call or to meet for coffee. Ill update if anything comes of it.
