Seems the perfect place to ask this question- a message board who's members who all have major GAS :D

I'd like to ditch all the individual guitar stands I've got lying around and buy some that will fit multiple guitars. E.g., the "RockStand" that muscian's friend has:

Anyone have a favourite brand? Ones to avoid?

Now if I could just find one with the EB logo on it ...
 
beej,

My wife got me one of the Rockstand 3-guitar models for Christmas. I don't have any other multi-guitar stands to compare (just a bunch of singles), but I really like it. Every part of the stand that touches the guitar is padded, and the bottom part folds to make the whole thing lie flat for storage/transport.

I know that it's a lot better than the 'two-guitars-at-180-degrees' or 3-way 'triangular' types that make all the guitars fall out when one is removed (my bass player has some of those.)

Thanks Steve- that's exactly the sort of detail I'm looking for.

Is it durable? (Not planning to throw it out the window or anything, but will I knock it to pieces in a drunken stupor?)
 
I have a triple Hercules stand which is really cool, and sturdy. I like the way they grab the guitar neck.

I have the 2 stand hercules,it's good and says it's fine for all finishes.Works well.
 
I have the one from Musicians Friend, and it is just OK. There is nothing between the guitars to keep them from banging against one another. A great man once said "You gatta keep 'em separated" Ok it wasn't a great man it was Dexter from The Offspring. :D
 
Ya, that's a good point. Not so good for my application - I'd be likely to bash them up.

Deacon- that stand is waaay cool. I'd need to buy more guitars to fill it up :p
 
I've got the 7 ooops I mean the 5 stand one that Jon has...I have never banged one yet...wait that sounds funny :p
 
Hold up now, I converted my 5 stand to accept 6 guitars...I simply pu one on the end and secured it with a velcroe strap and a velcroe holder...you want pics?
 
I would love to see a pic. I have the 5 stand but 6 guitars.

I was looking at updating to the 7 stand, but then the temptation to buy another guitar to fill it would be to great.

I'm 6'5" sleeping on the couch is getting too painful. :D

i have the rockstand 7 and i love it! good price, easy to assemble, lots of padding.

i only have 5 guitars on it, but it works out good for me. i don't see getting 7 on it anyway!
