Re: [HG] Stands

[Arle Lommel]

I have had very experience with a König and Meyer guitar stand, which I think is the same sort of thing as what Scott describes. You can see one at the following URL: http://tinyurl.com/gvasx This type is rubberized and seems to grip even large instruments securely. The only drawback I find is that there is not much vertical clearance between the end of the instrument and the floor, so the crank must always be turned to the 12 o'clock position or it hits the floor. If an instrument had a particularly long distance between the lower end of the instrument and the crank, it could conceivably hit the floor, so it would be best to find a local guitar shop with one of these and take you instrument in an try it, just to be safe.

A stand for another instrument, or a custom made item?   Am deeply jealous of you peeps off to meetings/festivals etc and hope you have a great time.   Jacqueline
