Re: Suitable "B" rig gearNot a bad suggestion.The biggest problems in the local market is dust and dew. Typically an hour into an outdoor show you can write your name in the dust that accumulates on most any surface. Then when the sun goes down, the dew commonly sets to where it's dripping off-of stuff. The combination of our dust and the dew... when it dries, it's pretty well set for life. Also the dust is high in aluminum oxide (Corundum)... which is the stuff they make knife sharpening stones with... I believe it's rated at about 9 on Moh's scale of hardness... a very fine dust that finds it's way into and makes hash out of slide faders in short order.I'm thinking rotary pot EQ's? Or at least sourcing slide pot gear that has really good gaskets on the slide pots.BTW: Here's a picture of the local country side...
