I have several different stands, some good, some not so good. I purchased this December 13th, 2013. (Todays is June 6th, 2018). I am giving it five stars because of price point (I originally paid around $7 for it) and it is still holding up. Its been through a household move, used out in the woods, been moved (thrown around) in the garage and so forth. Still in one piece, still does it's job. It is the exact same quality and same type of manufacture as the $15 or so stands I bought at GC years ago. At this price point which is VERY CHEAP just take care of it and it will last. It will also do what it is supposed to do, hold a Guitar.

I must have got some other product or they have changed their design because how someone could say this is a good product is beyond me. It does go together easily but it leans backwards. I bought mine to set my guitar or bass near me so I would have easy access to play when I had time. This thing leans back so far that it would be putting pressure on the neck. I wouldn't trust it past an hour or two. Anyone who is storing their guitar on one is going to end up with neck issues in short time. I figured I would use it for times when I was out of the house but when I put my bass on it the center of gravity was so high that a slight bump would knock it over. I would never use it on a stage or anywhere people are moving around it. I tried it with my other instruments and the only thing it could support was a sad small banjo. Run away from this product if you have any instrument that you love and want to keep.

What an absolutely terrible piece of worthless junk. The base of the stand attached to the tripod was about 30 degrees off center. I figured it was just adjustable, so I tried to turn it and it simply broke off, revealing three shotty spot welds that held it in place (again mind you, EXTREMELY off-center). Granted, I'm also fairly certain the guitar stand I received is not this one that I purchased. The stand/packaging no where says Musician's Gear, but "ChromaCast". Regardless of whether or not I received an incorrect product or this is the right one and it just sucks, I would definitely not recommend purchasing from this seller ("Online_Bargain_Hunter"). I sure wouldn't call this a bargain, as I can probably find some scrap metal on the side of the road instead of spending $16. If only I could give this less than one star.

In my years of using Amazon Prime, I have never received such a disappointing package. Once I opened the package I found that several parts were slightly damaged. Once I began to put the product together, it was soon evident that nothing fit together. Had the product assembled as it was intended to, I would still have been disappointed because it amazes me how poor the quality of the product is. Either I have received a parts that did not pass quality assurance, or people who have rated this product highly are even higher than I am. I am aware that this stand is not exactly "expensive" and I don't and never expected excellent built, but I at least expected a product that would satisfy its purpose. This stand is obsolete. Buy any other stand, spend a couple more bucks, but don't buy this stand.

I purchased this stand to hold a new guitar I purchased. Put it together and wasn't too impressed when assembling. At the time, I was worried about the lower portion that holds the base of the guitar. It moves and rotates, it's weird, but it did the job. I kept it in the same place for like 6 months used the guitar and put it back each time. Today, I was cleaning up the carpet and had to move the stand and guitar. I held them both firmly and moved them with care. I didn't even go 6 feet across my room and the section that holds the neck of the guitar breaks. I come to see that it's just a small sheet of metal welded together. Luckily, I caught my guitar before it hit the ground. I'm just shocked because I never noticed it, but what a s***** job of welding. I'm no pro or an amateur or even a beginner welder and I can tell you its a s***** welding job. I've been a member of Amazon for a long time, I pretty much buy everything off here and this is the only review I've ever written. Because this s***** product will mess up your guitar. Mine only cost about $200, but I love it. Imagine putting a Les Paul on this piece of crap. THINK ABOUT YOUR GUITAR and buy a different stand.
