Out'stand'ing

Couple of these stands in almost constant use for last few months. Well made, stable, holds Fender / Warwick Corvette basses without needing to remove cables. Snap shut reasonably small to fit in gig bag. Bit heavy, but that is the price of stability. Get one of these and it should last you for life!

The best of the best
Waldorg 08.03.2019
Incredibly stable, I can put my bass anyway I want to and it's not going to budge at all!

Impressive

Edit: 28/03/2020

BE CAREFUL with how your instrument presses on the stand.. I damaged both of my stands foam (And scratch one of my bass) because the foam was pressing right on the screw/edge of the battery cavity (ESP LTD B-204SM), which ripped the foam over time, then the metal of the stand.. then the back of my bass (Sire MM FL 5S)...

As I believe this damage is due to my bass and its awkward battery positioning, it's still a great stand (see the first comment above). I am still going to buy this stand for my next instruments because of it's incredible stability and compactness, but I will now take a closer look at the state of the foam over time.

Just a warning.

Very good stand
Golencio 20.05.2016
Pretty good stand for quite a bit of money. It is lightweight, portable and stable. It takes up very little space and can be stored in the pocket of some gig bag. I have 3 different Hercules stand and with each one I am very pleased.

The only small criticism with this , is that I have to be careful when I lean my J - bass, because due to the shape of the body, the bass can a little " hang " on the side....but the Gibson SG stands perfectly.

I use it at home, and really suits me because it is small and when I put the guitar on it, the stand almost remains invisible, so who the guitar becomes a nice piece of furniture :-D

Pros:
- lightweight
- stable
- easy to carry

Cons:
- not completely adapted for the J-shape bass

so happy
gyuri 20.11.2018
I'm super happy with this stand. Got it to have a lightweight mobile stand for my bass that I can unfold easily. This wins, it's a no brainer, cheap, excellent quality and does what it says. For me it's actually superior to the other Hercules stands I have.

I already have three Hercules stands which I like because they fold up very small but are strong and stable. I find them a little bit awkward to fold because of the little buttons that I have trouble pushing in.
This one folds and opes in a second and seems as stable as the others.
Not sure if it’s so sturdy. Time will tell

A handy stand to have
Daniel3332 07.05.2014
This Hercules guitar stand (GS302B) fully supports the guitar but can be folded away taking up very little space.

I've found this to be a sturdy guitar stand and now have 4 around the house holding everything from an Antoria 335-alike to my Gibson Les Paul Traditional weighing 10.5 lbs. I have 2 young children and the stands are sturdy enough to prevent the guitar from tipping over from an accidental knock.

Anyone with a guitar that has a nitrocellulose finish (most Gibsons, some Gretsch, Fender and other brands) should take care when choosing a guitar stand. Some stands can cause "nitro burn" where the material on the stand reacts with the nitro finish on the guitar. Because there are so many different types of nitro finish, no manufacturer can guarantee that their stands with be safe for any particular guitar.

That said, Hercules stands are known for being safe to use with Gibson guitars and certainly I've never experienced any problems using mine.

So, either wrap an old t-shirt around all of the plastic parts on your guitar stand to avoid damaging the nitro finish on your guitar, or buy a Hercules stand.
