Dankology Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Having melted areas of finish in the past and with a nitro-finished bass incoming, I'm looking for recommendations for stands appropriate for home and stage use. (Which is to say low-profile for the living room and near-idiot-proof for gigs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 I just get the regular ones then cut up an old t shirt and wrap that around the areas where the instrument will touch it, this from experiencing exactly the same issues in the past. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Which is to say low-profile for the living room and near-idiot-proof for gigs) I've had my JMJ Mustang, which I believe has a nitro finish, for 4 years now and have used Hercules wall hangers as well as their tripod stands with the neck gripping thingies*, and never had any issues with the materials they use in their products reacting with the finish. *One of these. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skybone Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 I'd suggest the Hercules range as well, but someone said that they can still discolour nitro finishes. If you're leaving the guitar/bass on the hanger/stand all the time, then like @Lozz196 said, you could use a cut up t-shirt, I've used some old ties, or something similar as a "piece of mind" precaution. I have the tripod, but only use it as required. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
