I don’t trust those things.

I agree....but with a doubleneck....

I don't trust those stands either.

How about the Hercules?

Neat!

Robert I have the stand you linked in post # 2.
It's solid as a rock and will have no problem
holding your double neck.
I rebent the 2 hooks to take a thinner bodied guitar.
If you want to see a picture of the rebend,
look in the "The muse I adorn" thread.

Oh, wow! Cool! Any tips on what you used and how you bent the hooks???

I used a vise and a piece of pipe and some padding
to avoid damaging the finish and foam on the stand.

I like it. I saw the pic. I need a secure stand for my Double Neck.

I did read one of the testimonies, not to be used with nitro finishes.

Mine is catalyzed urethane. You can see how precarious it is in a regular stand!

I would appreciate knowing your reasons.

Wow that's not good Rob! It is time to make the change.

I don't think they hold guitars securely enough. There is too much likelihood for the guitar to be bumped off the stand. I prefer a stand that suspends the guitar by the headstock and has a wide, stable base. If I need to have a stand for several guitars, I use a guitar rack.

This is what I use for a single guitar:

This is what I use for multiple guitars:

Thanks for your input on this matter.

Agreed. Here’s two examples in one pic:



A five space Hercules rack on the left, and a Hercules triple tree on the right. There have been reports of plastics used in the stands like my triple tree failing. Mine haven’t yet. I guess some years of their production the plastics used become dry, and brittle, causing failure.

I'd try a guitar rack, similar to my post above (#15).

I only have 2 guitars!

One of them is really big.
