Hercules Stands HCGS-415B+

Sturdy, but with its problems

It is very strong and stable with a guitar in it, without it is a bit shaky but no big deal. A bigger problem is that you cannot disengage the height adjustment button. I was moving it once and accidentally held it by the button which made my guitar hit the floor with the bottom. Overall great, just be careful with the button

Great Guitar Stand

I needed a guitar stand where I could hang my guitar due to me using the BOSS wirless system in my guitar jack, and on my explorer guitar a normal guitar stand where bottom of guitar sits on stand, meant it was to easy for the boss wirless jack connection to get damaged. So I bought thids Hurcules Stand. It is very compact so easy to bring to gigs, the mechanism for adjusting the stand height is excellent and very easy to do with one hand. The stand legs are not very long/wide so it doesn't take up much space, yet is still very sturdy. An excellent guitar stand for any guitar

Surprisingly good!

I just wanted a stand for my bass that doesn't rely on the body just sitting in a cradle. I got this because it locks around the neck. I didn't realise how awesome the automatic locking mechanism actually is. You just set the instrument down onto the clamp and it clicks down around it, the body of the bass rests against the foam padded front legs of the stand. To grab your instrument you just pick it back up and it automatically releases. It's actually my favourite method now by far.

Best stand

This is the most stable and secure stand you can get. However, it's bigger then the ones only holding the bottom. Very nice build quality too.

Best stand

The best stand for any of my guitars, regardless of shape.

No wonder that backgear rental companies use them too.

Simple, durable and steady!

This stand is simple, super durable and steady. Easy to carry and can fold up nicely to fit it in your bags.

Once of the best stand out there! Definitely recommendable

The best stand!

Very nice guitar stand. With legs all out, it's very stable.

Have had several other Herkules guitar stands with this grip system has failed after a while. It might have been improved, but time will tell.

Holds guitars

Very stable and easy to adjust the height for the instrument. Folds down very compact. Holds my P-bass and Tele perfectly.

I can finally sleep at night

Having two kids and a cat, I was really worried about the potential damage my bass could endure and this stand really delivers on its promise of stability and practicality.

The build quality feels strong, the adjustable tripod feels really stable. Also, the "auto-grab" feature adds another layer of security.

After buying one for my bass, I got another for my guitar and, almost a year later, I do not regret the peace of mind it provides.

So easy to use

Super happy with this. So easy to use, even when you're in a hurry. I've bumped it a few times too but has never even wobbled. Also easy to fold up and take with you. Well designed and built.
