Hobbayne Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I remember reading about a stand you could rest your guitar on, which attached to your amp. Can anyone tell me what they are called?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andydye Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 You mean the markbass one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbayne Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 (edited) [quote name='andydye' timestamp='1365459675' post='2040013'] You mean the markbass one? [/quote] No I think its a generic one that sits on the top of a combo and the neck rests in it. The body rests on the floor.

andydye Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Not sure then, I only know of the markbass one that velcros to your cab carpet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubbersoul Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I think there's a Planet Waves one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkyard Rocket Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 This one: [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Planet-Waves-PW-GR-01-Guitar-Rest/dp/B004N0MKN8"]http://www.amazon.co.uk/Planet-Waves-PW-GR-01-Guitar-Rest/dp/B004N0MKN8[/url] Wouldn't be much good for a Jazz, Jag or t-bird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly would not trust it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacDaddy Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) i rest my Flying V against the amp, but I always stand it on something padded/soft and not directly on the floor. Edited, to add I lean it so the contact is with the strings and not the neck. Edited April 9, 2013 by MacDaddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I think a pretty good stand (or the best I've found) is the Ultimate Genesis GS-100.

[/quote] Good for you. The guitarist in my band and I purchased 3 of them and the auto grabs gave in on all 3. Mind you they still function as a stand as they tilt back, making it unlikely that your bass/guitar will come to any harm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
