Policies & F.A.Q.
Our preferred method of communication is EMAIL. book”at”projamspaces.com
First time users are required to fill out & sign a DAMAGE WAIVER, plus provide valid ID and credit card (visa/mc only).
Payment should be received in advance by E-TRANSFER at least 48 hours before your session.
Please send E-TRANSFER to: book”at”projamspaces.com
PA systems are for VOCALS ONLY unless you get permission first!
PJS is not responsible for unclaimed items left on the premises for over 30 days.
We reserve the right to refuse service to those who are unable to: 1) abide by our HOUSE RULES or 2) keep our studios clean, energy efficient & secure.
Are The Rental Drumkits Complete?
YES! All rental kits are (5) piece kits, including snare & bass drum with 2 mounted toms & 1 floor tom, hihat, ride & 2 crash cymbals, stands, kick pedal & throne. While all kits are complete, we do recommend that drummers bring their own “breakables” (snare, cymbals, pedals, etc.) to make the rental kits feel more like their own. The only thing we do not provide are drum sticks so please bring your own!
What If We Don't Have A Credit Card?
Unfortunately, if neither you or any of your fellow band mates are able to provide a credit card (Visa/MC only), you will not be able to rent a studio from us. It’s a similar situation as renting a car or hotel room. We hope you understand.
We Paid In Advance By The Month. What If We Need To Cancel A Session?
If you need to cancel one of the sessions that you’ve paid for and provided you give us at least 48 hours notice, you can book another date during that month OR you can get a credit for the following month. Sorry, we cannot carry your credit beyond 1 month). Keep in mind that if you have to credit the following month, it may affect your special rate (4+ sessions per month).
Are Guitar Cabs Available To Rent?
Sorry, we only rent out Fender (or similar) guitar combo tubeamps.
Exact Address of Studios?
Once you have completed our waiver and paid in advance for your first session, we will let you know the exact address of our studios.
What Can We Run Through The PA?
We prefer that only vocals & playback go through our PA systems unless permission has been given by management.
