- STUDIO HEADPHONES: At least one per board (we’ll provide headphones only for unmanned boards)
- AUDIO CABLES: Please use your own audio cables to connect the pedals.
- POWER: Please connect all pedals to power adapters so that they are ready to be plugged in.

—–SELLING GUIDELINES—–
At our shows, if you wish, you can sell direct. If you don’t want to, you can sell through the participating stores. If you don’t know what stores are participating, ask Paolo.
—–PLEASE DO NOT SEND/BRING—–
- BANNERS – we don’t have space for them, the 11″x17″ info sheet should have your logo and all the info about your pedals.
- STUDIO MONITORS OR AMPS: Our events are strictly in the headphones – it helps with human interaction! You can only bring amp heads if they are not wider than your board, but you’ll have to play them through the headphones.

—— AFTER THE SHOW ——
GETTING MATERIAL BACK – SUPER IMPORTANT!!!!
Please send a Fedex or UPS return label to this email address by 06.05: return.labels – at -thedelimagazine.com, so that we can get the carriers to pick up the stuff and return it to you. Subject of the email should be: “[YOUR COMPANY] BK 2015 Return Label”.
If you want to also print a label, please don’t put it in the board bag’s pouch, but directly on top or under the board itself, that way we can’t miss it.
