MS 3122 HDB Microphone Stand : Great for recording guitar...

From the off I wanted a smaller microphone stand than some of the regular stuff out there primarily to record 4x12 cabs in a studio environment. I have a number of gravity stands from previous purchases and so I considered these... eventually buying two of them.

This small microphone stand is exactly what I was looking for, very robust and well enough made to stand the rigors of being knocked about in a studio. I use many of the common microphones and even some of the weightier ones (Aston Stealth) is handled well enough on this stand, and mics like Shure beta and many other microphones are a doddle. There is little or no instability if you set it up right.

I particularly liked how robust these stands are... especially for the price. The little 'green' rings are basically a gimmick and serve little use except for aesthetics...

Overall I would buy again and these are recommended if you need small stubby stands that are very robust in use and can handle even larger microphones that have weight.
