Need Gear? Grab It and Go: The Nashville Audio Visual Will Call Advantage

Nashville is a city that thrives on “Big Production.” You see our trucks at massive hotel ballrooms, our technicians rigging lights for sold-out concerts, and our screens glowing at the city’s largest conventions. It’s easy to look at a company like Nashville Audio Visual and think, “They probably wouldn’t bother with my little weekend project.”

Well, we’re here to let you in on a little secret: We’re never too big to help you look and sound amazing.

Whether you are hosting a 10-person board meeting, a neighborhood block party, or a DIY album release show, our Will Call Client Pick-Up is your gateway to the professional gear the pros use—minus the full production price tag.

Scenario 1: The “Make or Break” Presentation

Imagine you’re the hero of a local non-profit. You’ve finally landed a meeting with a major donor at a local Nashville café. You have a killer slide deck and a video that is guaranteed to pull at the heartstrings.

You arrive early, try to set up your home-office portable projector, and realize… the room is too bright. The image looks like a ghost on the wall. The sound from your laptop speakers is getting drowned out by the espresso machine. Your “big moment” is fading faster than a Nashville sunset.

The Nashville AV Save: That morning, you swung by our warehouse for a quick Will Call pick-up. You grabbed a high-lumen professional projector that cuts through daylight like a hot knife through butter and a compact powered speaker that makes your video soundtrack rich and immersive. You look prepared, professional, and trustworthy because you leveraged the best inventory in Music City.

Scenario 2: The “Last-Minute” Songwriter Showcase

It’s 2:00 PM on a Friday. You’re a local musician or manager, and you just landed a last-minute showcase at a trendy industrial space in Wedgewood-Houston. The catch? The venue is “acoustically challenged” (it’s a concrete box) and has zero lighting. You need to look like a pro, but your budget is tight.

The Nashville AV Save: You call us up, and 30 minutes later, you’re at our Will Call dock. You pick up:

  • A “Busker” Battery-Powered PA: No looking for outlets; just pure, high-fidelity sound.
  • A 4-Pack of Wireless LED Uplights: You drop them in the corners, set them to a warm amber, and suddenly that concrete box looks like an intimate VIP lounge.
  • A Professional Vocal Mic: Because your voice deserves better than a dusty plastic mic from 1998.

Scenario 3: The Hybrid Meeting Hero

You’re hosting a small seminar downtown, and half your team is joining via Zoom. You realize the built-in webcam on your laptop isn’t going to show the whiteboards, and the “room audio” sounds like you’re underwater.

The Nashville AV Save: You swing by Will Call for a Professional USB PTZ Camera and a USB Audio Interface. You plug them in, and suddenly the remote team can see every detail on the board and hear every word spoken in the room. You just turned a “frustrating call” into a collaborative masterclass.

Pro Gear Without the Pro Headache

The beauty of our Will Call service is that it’s designed for the knowledgeable user. If you know your way around an HDMI cable and a power outlet, you can skip the labor costs of a full crew and just get the “good stuff.”

We take immense pride in our inventory. We like to say we have a stable plumbing history, but a perfect engine. We’ve done the hard work of maintenance so that when you plug it in, it just works. Every piece of equipment is:

  • Monitored: We track every hour of use to ensure reliability.
  • Clean: No dusty cables or scratched lenses.
  • Resilient: This is “tour-grade” gear, built to perform in high-stakes environments.

What’s on the Will Call Menu?

Our warehouse is a candy store for tech lovers. No matter the size of your vehicle, we have gear that fits:

  • Audio Packages: Wireless handhelds, lapels, and even specialized Podcast Mics for remote recordings.
  • Visual Kits: High-definition projectors and Fast-Fold Screens that assemble in minutes for a massive, professional display.
  • Mixing Consoles: Small 4-channel mixers for a solo act or Digital Mixing Boards for a full band.
  • Atmosphere & Lighting: Battery-powered uplights, decorative Bistro string lighting for patios, and even small Haze Machines to make those light beams pop.
  • Pipe and Drape: Want to hide a messy wall or create a sleek backdrop? Our easy-to-assemble drape kits turn any room into a studio.
  • The “Save the Day” Kit: Extra-long HDMI cables, SDI converters, and adapters for every laptop on the market.

We’re Your Neighbors, Not Just Your Vendors

At the end of the day, Nashville is a small town in a big city’s clothing. We love being the team behind the massive arena shows, but we also love helping a local entrepreneur crush a presentation or a couple have the perfect audio for their wedding vows.

Our mantra is simple: We are clean, we are monitored, and we are resilient. We bring that same energy to a $50 rental that we bring to a $50,000 production. We are the “engine” that powers your vision, no matter how many people are in the audience.
