Solo Acoustic Guitarist Stage Plot Template for Live Gigs

What this template covers

This solo acoustic guitarist stage plot keeps things as simple as the gig itself: one guitar, one voice, one wedge. The guitar sits on a direct box so the venue only needs to run two channels, no cab, no separate DI icon cluttering the plot. Send it ahead of a coffeehouse set, a listening room booking, or a bar gig where the house engineer wants the input list before you walk in.

Channel walkthrough

The input list builds itself from what's on the stage:

• Acoustic Guitar 1 (DI) - your pickup or soundhole mic, taken direct
• Lead Vocal - a dynamic mic on a boom stand, centre stage

That's two channels total. No pedalboard, no amp, no extra clutter for the engineer to sort through at load in.

Monitor notes

One wedge, angled up at you from centre stage. If you play a room with in-ears instead, swap the wedge icon for an IEM pack and note the mix in the input list. Either way, you are hearing your own guitar and vocal blend, not fighting the room.

Customize it

Open the template in the editor and make it match your real setup. If you run a second guitar for an alternate tuning, duplicate the guitar icon and rename it "Acoustic Guitar 2." If you use a looper or a small DI pedal in the chain, add it as a visual note near the guitar. It won't add a channel of its own, which is correct: the guitar is still the source, the pedal just shapes the signal on the way to the board.

When the layout matches what you're actually bringing, export the PDF and send it to the venue so the engineer has your input list before you arrive. This solo acoustic guitarist stage plot is meant to save you both a few minutes of back and forth at soundcheck.
