Hercules Guitar Stands

I have had two of the floor stands for several years. I have never had any problems. They are very stable and the yoke clamp works perfect. I'm not sure if they will fit a 6 string.

 

Mine holds my mvp 6 just fine

 

I have 4 string basses but have refused to use anything but my Hercules stand since I got it - worth the $

 

I have a few wall mounted ones and a couple of floor models. Both types seems to work fine for me.

The distance between the "pads" is about 5cm (2"). (The neck can be a tiiiny bit wider because the foam have tome give, but it's not recommended)

 

My 6-string Carvin has a 2" wide nut. It won't fit in my Hercules stand, which is unfortunate because the stand is terrific.

 

I have a couple and love them. The very early ones, however, had a problem. The inside of the yoke was not completely padded, and the hard plastic marred the heels of the headstock. It's been remedied now.

 

Sort of the same subject. Is there a hanger strong enough and with a yoke wide enough to support a Conklin GTBD-7?

 

Get a bag for it if you're going to move it a lot. I bought a triple stand about five years ago and recently one of the clips broke off when it got wedged against a speaker cabinet in the back of the truck. Not that they aren't durable; they are. Bag is a good idea though.

 

Seconded. I carry my stand in a bag that came with my folding lawn chair. It fits perfectly.

 

No idea on the 6 string fit, but I love mine. I have the dual hanger. If it's a long scale I'm not sure it goes up high enough. My T-bird is only about 3" off the ground & the stand is at its highest.
