ubit Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 This seems a great idea but can only be of use to players who own an 8 x 10 fridge! https://www.basshanger.com/?fbclid=IwAR3pdTd3qJXUHwL_NQ4FNz0Z_5l9jCAUuF2xOheA8HlEIgx2JvGizx-K2TU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elfrasho Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Yep.. For someone who's able to transport a 6x10 or 8x10 to gigs probably is able to also transport a stand without a problem! Although, I've always had the idea of having a rotatable bit added to small combos or cabs which would allow the neck to be rested up against it without risk of it sliding away. As in, the bass sits on the floor leaning against the amp, but this just provides a groove for the neck to sit in. When not in use it can be spun round so it sits flush against the top of the cab or bass. I'm sure that's a real thing, but if not, someone should make it!

Beer of the Bass Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I've seen some far more niche products, but they're probably not things I should post here! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen a silicon neck rest that sits on any flat surface and keeps the neck upright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not perfect, but they do the job. https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Planet-Waves-Guitar-Rest/R3M?origin=product-ads&campaign=PLA+Shop+-+GENERIC&adgroup=GENERIC&medium=vertical_search&network=google&merchant_id=1279443&product_id=35122d1&product_country=GB&product_partition_id=127206560719&gclid=CjwKCAjwqfDlBRBDEiwAigXUaDFqb5mE5ueOY42IrqYQEw5e1Y-oklPFQ9UAF7Cv8hOse39uTTdgXhoC_csQAvD_BwE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would need to be retro fitted and i would imagine a very thin metal base plate would need to be attached to the cab, so not sure how many id sell... and to be honest, it would probably give little support. Not sure Id even buy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FinnDave Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I just tie my (bass's) neck to the strap on the side of the amp. Secure, quick and zero cost (assuming you own some string or velcro) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
