steviedee Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 I'm looking for a multistand just for home use. I currently have a Hercules GS515B [url="http://www.herculesstands.com/guitars/GS515B.html"]http://www.herculess...ars/GS515B.html[/url] which is a good stand just really long. I was looking at the warwick tubular rockstand but the headstocks overhang. So it would need a good six inches or more away from the wall. Anybody got any suggestions? The guitar case stands look like the most likely. This rondo one looks good as the instruments are upright not angled but I can't find them in the uk.

Old Horse Murphy Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 (edited) I've just got one of these. It's completely rock solid very well made. As you say though, it needs to be placed a way back from the wall due to the angle of the headstock when the bass is in the stand. If you can live with that though,I don't think you'd find a better stand without breaking the bank. http://www.herculesstands.com/guitars/GS525B.html Edited June 30, 2013 by Old Horse Murphy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 (edited) I have this one at home [url="http://compare.ebay.co.uk/like/160666857537?var=gv<yp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar&_lwgsi=y&cbt=y&device=c&adtype=pla&crdt=0&ff3=1&ff11=ICEP3.0.0&ff12=67&ff13=80&ff14=65&ff19=0"]http://compare.ebay....&ff14=65&ff19=0[/url] which is fine for home use for seven basses. I'd guess not such good quality as the Hercules, though. Same thing about standing away from the wall.

steviedee Posted June 30, 2013 Author Share Posted June 30, 2013 There was a bloke on Gumtree selling the rockstand but I have this acoustic bass and it's just quite long. It would be great if the angle could be a bit less. Hercules stand looks great but same issue unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamPodmore Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 I use a Spider one that i got from Flightcase Warehouse. Rock solid and wasn't a bad price either. They don't seem to have them anymore but they're the exact same as the [url="http://www.gak.co.uk/en/stagg-gdc-6-guitar-stand-case/6594?gclid=CKWdoJmkjLgCFWbJtAodUwoALA"]Stagg GDC-6[/url] just with a different badge.

Ian Savage Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 I've got one of those Staggs that I'd consider parting with if you wanted to make me an offer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike257 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I've got the Stagg 6 guitar jobby that folds into a suitcase. Cost me £45 over ten years ago and after a varied life of touring, studio and home use it's still as solid as day one. Always had it butted up against a wall with no issues and it'll take guitars/basses of all shapes and sizes. Currently in my music room with all my "stay at home" instruments in but I'm about to empty it out as I need it for my function band - plenty life in it yet!
