KiOgon Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) I just bought one of these for my ThinLineTelecaster guitar. Very easy to fold/unfold, parts lock into place nicely, well made, strong enough plastic & good 'ridged' sort of grey soft rubber contact areas - "Suitable for Guitar Finishes" - I assume this includes Nitro! It's very neat with a smaller footprint than other stands I've had, great for limited space & less sticking out bits to trip over. Excellent streamlined shape & size when folded, will easily fit in a gig bag pocket or a guitar case with no nasty sharp edges or unwanted stray legs & it stays folded! Telecaster sits in it perfectly, so does the P-bass shape, confidently stable but doesn't take much of a lateral push to start it toppling over with the extra height & weight of a bass, obviously with the compact design - you can't have everything. No good for Jazz bass shape though, or anything with a offset body, there's no 'safe' angle I could get a Jazz to sit without a tendency to go over sideways. Because there's nothing to get hold of it's a bit aukward to lift & move with a guitar in situ, due to the low back support. Scores: Value for Money: Cost £13.30 posted, pretty good = 7/10 Construction: Decent Quality materials & well made = 8/10 Appearance: Smooth & stylish, Black + Red badges + Grey soft areas = 9/10 Usefulness: Limited to symetrical shaped bottoms = 6/10 [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v48/kjon51/Strings%20and%20Things/FenderGigStand_zps47cdd778.jpg"]http://img.photobuck...zps47cdd778.jpg[/url] [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v48/kjon51/Strings%20and%20Things/FenderGigStandOpen_zps6dc49370.jpg"]http://img.photobuck...zps6dc49370.jpg[/url] Cheerz, John Edited April 5, 2013 by KiOgon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
