Ampwedge

Anyone know of something similar to this, which is no longer available? I believe it's made of acoustic material so a bit like a tilt-back Gramma platform. I know I could just use a couple of books or something but this looked like a bit neater. Although, if they went out of business maybe it wasn't such a great idea!

I've used one of these in the past:

Works fine. 

 

Or if you have a carpeted cab, a Mark Stand?

Thanks for the ideas jakester. IKEA laptop support is an interesting one. The Mark Stand looks rather cheap and nasty but I guess it does the job!

I’ve got both - the MS gets the nod generally as it folds down, but the laptop stand is surprisingly effective.

I've got one of the Markbass thingys. You'd be more than welcome to try it out for a few days if you want to Ian

The Markbass one doesn't feel like it should do but it can prop up a decent sized cab for a whole gig. I've had mine for quite a while, you can't go adjusting the angle and it feels a bit steep but it really does do the job.

Thanks for the very kind offer Mike. It was really the ampwedge thingy that caught my eye but I can improvise something along similar lines. Cheers
