Shipping price increases, Sept 2024. Fuuuuuuuu....

Sukh Ryatt • Sep 18, 2024

They've gone and increased shipping charges... again

After getting everything ready to reboot ZenRigs, we've just found out shipping prices (particularly international) have skyrocketed since we last sent anything. The cost to the USA, for example, has increased by an eye watering 30%. OUCH. Sadly , there's absolutely nothing we can do about this. I't hurting small businesses (and we've ALWAYS absorbed some of the shipping costs to keep them down for our customers), but we have to just bite down and do the best we can.  I'm so sorry. Someone, somewhere, in charge of postal charges, is sitting on a beach drinking cocktails and laughing at their captive audience. Ugh.


We'll just continue to focus on making the best products around and providing the best customer service in the business and will do our best to absorb some of the increase. As always, thank you all (wherever you are in the world) for your support.

A day with Steve Vai

By Sukh Ryatt • 05 Apr, 2022
On a cold day in December 2012, I got to spend the day with Thomas Nordegg and Steve Vai. It was a hell of a day, and one that I'll remember until the proverbial bucket is kicked. I went home that night and wrote everything down to make sure I'd not forget, and am sharing that story with you here, including lots of back-stage pictures and side-stage gig footage, in this epic post. It's long, but I wanted to get it down in one go rather than serialise it, as it's all very interconnected. NOTE : This story was written waaaaay back in 2012, and things have changed since then. Steve ended up the using my solid ZenRigs magnetic glow-in-the-dark labelling system, 'KickTags' on his Fractal Audio MFC-101 and took then all over the world until the Axe-FX III replaced his old Axe-FX II based rig. This story is about my early 'hobby' version of the labels and how I got to know Steve and Thomas because of them . To this day, Thomas and Steve still use things I've made and I still look forward to meeting up every time they swing by the UK . I hope you enjoy the read! Onto the story...
