Customer reviews about Hercules Stands DS530B Alto /Tenor Sax Stand

LZ

The usual Hercules quality, but a loose fit

Leon Z. 03.04.2019

I absolutely adore Hercules stands - they've set a standard for me when it comes to instrument stands. I own a lot of them - for guitar, piano and now, this one for saxophone. And this is the first one that has left me wanting... more. It folds super-fast and neatly, comes with its own carry bag. A small fold out spacer to lift the bell away from the stand and increase stability. But, where I've found it lacking - is the foam U bracket that holds the horn itself, the main part of the stand. It is VERY wide and alto saxophone will have a loose fit, even those with a wider bore. I use it with a Yanagisawa AW-O1 and P.Mauriat 67R and both will wobble and slide to one or other side if bumped ever so slightly. I will try to squeeze and make the bracket fit the form a bit more tightly, but the stock format is just too loose for a firm, safe grip.

Holds the saxophone and is sturdy

Cristóvão 20.05.2021

There is not much to say more than the title. It is a sturdy stand and it holds my saxophone. I ask no more of it.

Holds well my tenor

Meblu 09.12.2025

Solid and robust thing. Very happy otherwise but did attach a piece of champagne cork with a zip tie to keep down the little thingy that leans against the low part of the bell. Would be nice to have a simple way to lock it down. That complaint and goes into "stability", as that part moves without the hack. Anyway, very happy.

Very good

boringbob 20.01.2019

These work well. You have to know the trick of depressing the chrome studs to open / close the arms. Not difficult once you realise they aren't rivets. Very robust and stable.

Hercules stelt nooit teleur

Bavo Maes 19.01.2025

Ik kocht dit statief voor mijn tenorsaxofoon en ik kan alleen maar zeggen dat de stabiliteit van dit statief perfect in orde is. De sax beweegt amper en staat echt stevig op elk podium.

hét handigste aspect is dat je dit statief zo klein kan vouwen dat hij zeer eenvoudig mee is te nemen. Ook door bijgevoegd draagzakje.

Niet wachten, doen!

S

Pleased with my Sax Stand

Steven2428 21.09.2017

I needed an inexpensive but solidly built sax stand to hold a tenor sax. I already owned a Hercules Bassoon stand which has been a more than solid performer over the years. I had high hopes for the sax stand, and was not let down.

I love the locking mechanism for collapsing the stand. It is solid, and the stand folds up nice and small. I also love the carrying case it comes with. I can see that it might give out under heavy use taking it to many gigs, but, I am treating it carefully and it's not being transported that much.

All in all, I'm very pleased.

Great saxophone stand

dieke 13.08.2025

I am very happy of this purchase. The stand is super firm and stable, even though it occupies a limited space (smaller than most other stands). When folded it becomes very compact and easy to bring with you, which is nice in gigs and similar occasions. I have been using it for months with my tenor sax and never had a problem.

Great

James20 01.06.2013

I really didn't realise how much I needed this stand until I got one. I'm completely dependent on it, it's very portable. Going to a from gigs is made much easier when your stand fits into your saxophone case. Not only is it portable, but it is also very stable when it's folded out. The rubber tips on the legs mean your sax is not going anywhere.
