fatback Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I can't imagine there being room for a stand on most of the stages we play. So I lie it on its side and hover over it like a mother hen. Most people's feet don't seem to communicate with their brains. I don't even get nervous playing the first number, it's such a relief to have the thing upright in my hands. Funnily enough, I've had more near misses at home, where the bass has been saved by its stand, than I've actually had at gigs with no stand. Just me being less vigilant.

nputtick Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Hercules. Very stable and cosmetically acceptable in a family room. It's nice just to show off your bass but you can also play it on the stand. Not cheap but then nothing is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essexbasscat Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 The Hercules stand has my attention at the moment. Any stands to avoid ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
