I am going to haul some amps and effects to northern Michigan. I may be forced to stop along the way for inclement weather ( Read freeze my A$$ off ).
Can our modern electronics stand sub zero weather ?

Bud, the electronics should take it, however I wouldn't put a guitar out in that cold.
I used to live in Kansas City, MO and the bandleader of the band I was in had a trailer that he kept all the PA equipment, his lead guitar amp, etc in and he would store it in an unheated barn between jobs and it never hurt anything. The temp would go down to minus 10 to 25 every January and the unheated barn wasn't much warmer. |

Living in Indiana we go through this every year and to add to what jack said, on the real cold days we allways tried to get to the gig atleast an hour and a half before showtime to let the electronics warm up because of condensation |
