I’ve been using these marvellous instrument stands for decades and recommending them to all my colleagues and students. The strongest and best designed instrument stands on the market! And Hercules “stands” behind their products. I was missing a tiny little part from my baritone sax/tenor sax/clarinet stand and when Hercules did not have the part available, they shipped me an entire new stand gratis!
You can see that stand above, along with the way cool Bass Clarinet/Alto Clarinet/Clarinet stand, the Alto Sax/Clarinet/Clarinet stand and the solo curved Soprano Sax stand. All the alto and tenor stands fit either instrument and include attachable soprano sax pegs, and clarinet pegs that also fit flute or piccolo.
If you are playing in a darkened orchestra pit for opera or musical theatre, the yellow bases help you see the stands. I’ve NEVER had an instrument bumped into or knocked over with these babies.
I just discovered last year that Hercules makes the very best music stands as well, from big conductor’s desk stands to the very best portables. They have a fantastic EZ grip lock that holds the stands firmly at any height and also allows raising, lowering or turning them with ease. The value is terrific….a lower price than the other two well known brands and vastly superiour.
Purchase any Hercules product with utter confidence!
