I have a couple of these Hercules stands...
http://www.musiciansfriend.com/acces...ustic-electric for both my electric and acoustic guitars. I have not had any problems with them structurally or affecting the nitrocellulose finish on my either of my guitars, but I've only had them for over a year. Great on carpet and smooth floors and folds up for portability if you need to take it with you. |

I have different types of stands and I have never had an issue with any of them. It comes down to personal preference. I have a cooper stand, I have the ones here^^^, I have an ultimate stand that is just like the Hercules stands only less expensive, and I have an A frame stand and I use them all in different applications. I also use different stands for different guitars.

I 've used the Hercules single upright stand with the folding yoke for years with zero problems.

I've been using a variety of Hercules stands for years in my lesson studio, on stage, and at home. No issues that weren't attributable to misuse, and that only happened once while the stand was folded and stored in a vehicle. Several of these stands were also subjected to summer camp conditions.
Awesome products. |

K&M also has a great warranty and parts policy. If I remember correctly, they have a five year warranty and a ten year parts availability guarantee. Never needed it, but I really like the idea. |

My Hercules stand has served well for years. No complaints at all.

Quite a few online reviews complain about the latch handle assy on K&M getting sticky/gooey.

I've been using these for years:

I have a Hercules stand that works great at open mics and gatherings.
However my playing at home is primarily confined to the living room & I like having a guitar within reach when the mood strikes me. The Hercules stand was not acceptable in appearance to my wife. She insisted that if I was going to have a guitar stand in the living room that it look good with the room decorations. So, I have a wood stand from south mountain wood works in PA (www.southmtwoodworks.com). Scott was awesome to deal with. I have had my stand for at least 5 years now... it's been banged & bumped by dogs, people, vacuum cleaners, etc.. with a guitar in it and I have never had an issue. |

I have one of the Hercules stands that holds 3 guitars. Had it for years and never had a problem with it. Have 3 of the ultimate stands too. They have worked just fine as well. Friends have the Hamilton stands and I see no problems with them either. Useful tools.

Had a 3-some Hercules stand. Two of the neck clasps that pivot to secure the guitar failed after light use.

Hercules Contact info
OK...I have to put this out there:
I had one of the notorious sticky rubber, single guitar with ratchet clasp stands--it became so deteriorated that the height adjust disintegrated. I emailed Jupiter Music and was given a contact for Alexis Alduenda, Customer Service Rep. She had me answer some questions and send pictures and said my new stand would be there in about two weeks (even though I had no receipt). Sure enough, nice new (and sturdier) stand delivered free. Great response and customer service. Here is the email if you need it; [email protected]
