So, I thinking a kick-bck stand for my 210 would be sweet but I have no idea where to get one. Any ideas? Preferably something that's relatively simple to install. Thanks

Two drawbacks of this stand...
1. Gotta finda place to put your amp.
2. The MB wedge and shuffle its way out from underneath the cab at high volumes.

I installed a Penn spring loaded surface mount handle from Parts Express on my 210 cabs and also my combos (pictured). It doesn't help if right in front, but get 6 - 8 feet away and it makes a big difference. Just a thought. By the way, +1 on the Quick-Loc stand!

Thanks to MNAirHead for helping name it!

Thanks to MNAirHead for helping name it! | That's what I'm looking for! Something that doesn't require extra gear. You wouldn't happen to have any more would you, I don't want to pay $5ish shipping on a $4 item, lol.

Maybe version 2.0 of the jimmy stand can include a piece of string to secure the jimmy stand to the cab to prevent loss and discourage theft.  |

Cheap, simple, effective and very user-freindly.

Until then, I'll carry on with my chunks of 2x4. (Which are painted black like Jimmy's) |

Cut it with a serated knife to 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" x 8" long; slip it under the front of a 55lb cabinet and it works great.
I bought a speaker stand that was recommended by a board member; not all recomendations are good ones ..... |
