Guitar Center recently held a massive grand-reopening of its Lynnwood, WA store and Mackie was there to shake things up. There were tons of people there enjoying music and generous giveaways in what can only be described as a carnival atmosphere. Community businesses got involved by setting up tents and letting participants enjoy a sample of their services.

Local bands played from 7pm until late into the night and Mackie was happy to be at FOH. An Onyx 3280 drove the show with some help from a couple of QuadEQ’s and a Quad Comp/Gate. SRM450v2’s were the perfect choice for stage monitors, while eight SWA1801z’s ensured a ridiculous amount of rump shaking bass. The Lynnwood police showed up, but it turns out they only wanted hot dogs—go figure.

The community of Lynnwood will certainly benefit from having this brand new Guitar Center in their neighborhood. They are also aware that this is Mackie’s hood and that we have their back.
