Playing bass on an upright stand

[bassplayincaspe]

Does anyone know of an upright stand for holding Rickenbacker basses? The only upright stands I can find don't work for basses that has the input on the bottom of the bass.

Would one of those work with a right angle plug?

K&M 14760 Performer Guitar Stand for Electric Guitars

This was the only one I could find on-line. Does anyone custom make these kind of stands?

First review of this item sez it works great with a Les Paul.

My bigger concern would be the thing tipping over because the longer neck of your Ric would throw it off balance, resulting in an adverse outcome.

https://vikingguitarstands.com/ has custom bass models. (I googled "custom walk up guitar stands.")

How about a stand which holds the bass by the neck, like wall fittings do?

I’ve seen bands use a bass in one of those K&M stands and it worked fine.
If you’re worried about a tip over you can buy photography light stand sandbags that are made to weigh down the bottoms of stands built just like this.

Thank you for the link. I'll check it out. Doesn't seem to be much out there.

Site sez out of production. Images look hinky too -- don't know if I'd trust a long-neck 9lb bass to one of those mic stands.

I'm referring to a stage stand that holds the bass while you are playing it.

Yes unfortunately my comprehension came too late for me to be able to use the edit to save me from embarrassing myself. Apologies.
