Bought this to hold my 16 pound Warr touch guitar. The rubber grippers / feet smudge off on the guitar finish, but you can buff this out. The felt is thin on the steel band used to hold the instrument. I may need to bend the steel band to fit the guitar body better. Otherwise, holds the guitar as advertised and saves my 45 year old back!

I have a couple of disc issues in my neck that pinches nerves and called sorts of pain and numbness down to my fingertips. I didn’t even know such a thing like this stand existed until my instructor suggested it. I spent about 15 minutes playing with the height, positions, and angles so it’s in a natural position.My neck, shoulders, arms, and hands carry no weight. With surgeries and recovery ahead of me, I thought I’d have to hang up my guitars for most of the year. This keeps me playing and just having fun.The cost is a tiny price to pay for me to enjoy my guitar passion for months that would otherwise be lost.Besides that, it’s easy to set up and position. Just a few simple knobs to lock the guitar firmly in the stand. I trust it enough to put my LP on it.And the curved “base” has a slot running down the middle for jacks on the side.

I've had an aching neck/spine thing that caused chronic headaches that went on for years. It was definitely related to decades of guitar playing, but I thought it was a posture thing. Then I started to suspect having a guitar slung around my neck for hours every day.I tried every strap under the sun, including all the harness type ones that distribute the weight evenly across both shoulders, but they were such a fiddle to put on and off and use on multiple guitars. Then I heard about this stand. Loads of times in the past I've been stood there with a guitar round my neck and thought wouldn't it be great if there were something that would just hold your guitar in the air with no weight on your body... and there was. I can play for hours again with no neck ache at all.As for the stand itself, 5 stars for the freedom it gives you, but I took a star off because it has a few design issues that could be improved upon. The rubber things that cover the front clamps can pop off really easily if your picking arm leans on the guitar and sort of pulls it back towards you a bit. A bit of double sided tape sorted that out. Also, the bracket that the guitar sits on has nothing supporting the back end so it jiggles about all over the place when playing. I fixed this by attaching one of those mic clamps you can get for attaching a second mic to a mic stand. They're the ones that let you have a mic at waist height for acoustic guitar, while the other mic is at head height. You attach this so the bit where the mic goes is pressed against the underside of the bracket preventing it from bouncing up and down.The final issue is foot pedals. With the three-legged base fully extended, it's very difficult to get pedals in there. I use an axe fx that has a expression pedal for wah etc, and a six switch foot controller. The only way I could get these near my feet was to set the three legs quite narrow, then lash the stand itself to my desk to make it impossible for it to tip over. I did this by screwing one of those cup holder hooks to the front of my desk, pinching it closed with pliars, then using one of those sturdy cable ties wrapped around the stand. A bathroom chain would probably work to. Now the stand cannot tip over no matter what even with the feet set really narrow. My concern with this stand before I tried it was that not having the guitar move around with me would affect my playing, but it's not an issue at all. Having the guitar in a fixed position is fine. And so good to be able to just walk away from it any time to answer the phone or whatever, then return and start playing again. It means my guitar is just ready to play immediately whenever I like. The stand is expensive for what it is, but it's very well made - design issues aside - and one of the best purchases I've made in years.

I was skeptical that this would be ergonomic and functional. I’m happy to say that it works great and is stable. I can easily play the guitar without the neck and shoulder pain of a guitar strap.

Excellent product. Allows me to play two different instruments/musical parts on stage back to back. Construction is superb, rock solid sturdiness. A bit pricey, butttt that’s not uncommon as most musicians will tell you 😂

Ok, I was looking for a stand to hold my mandolin, but after reading some reviews, I found it doubtful that this stand would work. Then again mine is not your average mandolin thank to Dillon musical instruments. But seeing it was the only performance stand I could find that wasn't specifically made for acoustic guitars, I decided to take the 350+ dollar risk and ordered it. After all, I could always use it for one of my electric guitars.Well let me tell you... this stand is just what the doctor ordered. No more switching from one instrument to another during the middle of a song. Now I just walk up to the mandolin and play it's part and back up a couple steps to play leads on the guitar. All without switching instruments and fumbling to get it back on a stand. Not to mention, getting the other strapped on before a solo.Keep in mind I have not stage or road tested it yet, but from the quality, I believe this stand will work out just fine for many years.As for the stand itself.. it's light weigh, but sturdy, folds up as compact as any cymbal stand, looks good in basic black and has plenty of adjustments for getting that perfect hight and angle for comfortable playing.I would say if you're looking for the perfect performance stand and have $350 to spend on a guitar stand, this would be what I recommend. Also the manufacturer has addressed the issue with the input jack, mentioned in earlier reviews. It now has a cutout that should address the issue for most brands of guitars. I'll include a picture. All and all, I am pleased with my purchase.

I read a lot of previous reviews and purchased this with the understanding that I could only use it for a small portion of my guitar collection; those guitars with front-facing output jacks. Well, the manufacturer has clearly listened to the feedback. The stand now has an oblong cutout that allows the use of any guitar; even those with output jacks on the side/bottom of the guitar. That said, I am much more likely to practice throughout the day. No guitar to pick up, strap on, etc. I just walk up to the guitar and practice/play. So far I'm very impressed!

After slinging basses for 50 years my back and shoulders were not letting me play very much and had to stop gigging. I went from playing 30 minutes before I would get hand tingling and shoulder ache to playing 3 hours straight. I have been to chiropractors for years to help relieve my bodily woes. This is great ! There are a few things that don't give this a 5 star. You definitely have to get used to standing different, now my left leg gets a little sore but way better than the back and shoulder aches I used to have. The top screw for the height adjustment lets the pole part creep down lower during the night. The other adjustments work fine. Not sure why this is, maybe a slight defect. I play a lot of rocking stuff and it gets bounced around a lot. A minor issue really. Most people don't even know its on a stand till I walk off stage and they see my bass all by itself the air. I have played this for 10 months and it keeps takes a lickin and keeps on tickin. The body curved piece does not fit exactly on my 77 Precision, but very close and the bass has never came off. It is a bit of challenge to mount the bas in the stand, but over time I have evolved a way to do it easily, just takes practice, like most instruments,,,.All in all, a good thing to have if your a bass player in your 60's.

When I bought this, I assumed it worked with all electric guitars, but that is not the case. It does not work with a Les Paul or PRS because the supporting bracket covers the guitar's input jack, so you can't plug into an amp! It's completely useless for any guitar set up like this.It did work with my Fender Strat which has the guitar cable input in a different location; however, it slowly slides off the support bracket after a few songs and you have to keep resetting it In order to prevent it from falling out. The stand is also cheap and slowly sink down with the weight of the guitar.It would be very simple for the company to extend the supporting bracket to cradle all the bottom of the guitar and then drill a hole so you can plug into your guitar. They would have to move the bottom securing bracket to make this happen, But it's very doable. I'm very surprised they launched something like this without putting a little more thought into its design – especially for $300 product.

You can stand or sit to this guitar support, 'brilliant!' because it angles towards you - some stands don't. Well made and sturdy :)

I'm in heaven ! No more straps detaching whilst you are playing ! no more back or leg ache ! It's a no-brainer; just walk up and play, fully adjustable, you can even change a string with the instrument still on the stand. Been playing guitar for over 35 years, best piece of kit i've EVER bought. 5 stars highly recommended.

Geht gar nicht: Die Schrauben der Gitarrenhalteklemmen stehen etliche Zentimeter weit ab und bohren sich in den Bauch des Spielers. Man kann auch leicht hängen bleiben und alles umreißen. Die Schrauben gehören auf die andere Seite!!Die Klemmen sind auch schwer anzubringen, es braucht Kraft und Geschicklichkeit, man kann sich schnell den Finger klemmen oder die Gitarre fällt einem runter. Es gelingt nicht schnell auf Anhieb, die Gitarre einzuspannen.Les-Paul-artige Gitarren haben wohl ein Problem damit, dass die Kabelbuchse nicht mehr zugänglich ist. Bei Strats tritt das Problem nicht auf.Stabilität: unten massiv und hochwertig, oben dünner werdend. Es wackelt mir doch zu sehr.Da bewegliche Teile nicht gesichert waren, erhielt ich das Gerät mit erheblichen Schrammen. Es war definitiv nicht mehr als neuwertig zu bezeichnen.
