Sweet!!!

I actually bought such a stand (rockstand by Warwick, right?) and I thought it's not stable enough for my rick, is it okay for you? maybe the one I got was defective...
Another thing that bothered me was the lack of dividers on the bottom part, this can cause the guitars to hit each other while being taken out...

The picture is simply astonishing, I wanted my ricks to look like that when I bought the stand, however - I have only 3 ricks, so the other slots would have been filled by my JassBass and my LesPaul.
So long and thanks for all the fish!

Never, ever drool on your surf shirt. It wrecks the solo.

Yes, it's a Warwick rockstand and I really love it! It's very stable and as long as you're careful you shouldn't worry about bumping one guitar against another. Besides, we're all very protective of our Ricks to begin with! :D
Here's another pic of the checkerboard pickguards:

MOTO much? I won't even bother with the requisite "wrong way 'round" joke. Helluva collection Brian!

Nice pics. I have that stand, and be warned, it will eat through Rick finishes pretty quickly.

Odd. I've got three of those stands; two in my office, and one at home. None of them has made any sort of mark on any of my Ricks, including a mint CS (very light color, as you know), my '60 Capri, or any of my BBs. No physical marks, no discoloration, no softening. They were bought at different times, months apart as required.

Most of the time, my Ricks are in their cases, but they've been on Rockstands once in awhile for as long as 3 months with no ill effects. Same with my Gretsches, which also have CV finishes.

Haven't had any problems with mine, either. Of course, the only time my Ricks are on the stand is during breaks when I'm playing. They stay in their cases when not in use.
