Hope the video helped. I meant to say Musicians Gear at the end. Sorry about that.

I have 7 of these in my house and I trust them all with my guitars (two Fenders, a Gretsch, a Martin, a Gibson and some Epiphones).

They are solidly built and extremely easy to set up. All one needs to do is extended the tripod legs, plug in the top half of the neck and screw it in so that it stays locked in. This feature is great if you have a bass and need more length for the instrument.

Some people have complained about the foam not being safe for a nitrocellulose finish. I’ve no idea if that’s the case. Nitrocellulose is typically found on more expensive guitars (I don’t even think Gibson and Fender use it much nowadays, except perhaps in their custom shop models, but if you can pay ,000 to ,000 for a guitar, would you use an stand for them?) If you’re worried about this, I suppose you should skip the stand, or replace the foam with some terrycloth or felt.

Additionally, some people have complained about the welds failing on this stand. As far as I know, the only “weld” is at the bottom, on the “skirt” where the legs lock into place. Unless you abuse the stand, I simply don’t see that piece failing.

All in all this is a great stand. Once I move into my new house, I will upload some pictures of the guitars on them.

This stand is a sturdy basic stand with retaining strap, at a good price. However, the product description doesn’t tell you that the foam is not meant to be used with a guitar with nitrocellulose lacquer. So anyone with nitrocellulose may need to wrap the foam on the supports with something else. Otherwise, exactly what you’re looking for.
