Quick comment about the box stand - they seem stable for guitars but loaded with basses they seem to want to rack over and collapse, unless there was something wrong with the one I was looking at or it wasn't set up correctly.
Listen to that sustain!

Thanks for the great pictures Steve!

You have hit this one out of the park!

These pictures are the next best thing to being there!

Excellent all the way around.

I THANK YOU VERY MUCH for taking the time to post all these pictures during this busy weekend!

ENJOY tonight!

Alan, some of the stands were not set up properly. It's not that there is a trick to it, it's just that there was a need for haste when they were set up. When set up properly, they are very stable, even for basses. (I had expereince with my F****r case stand, so that's how I knew how to set one up.)

Chris,

I got the serial number of John Hall's Shadow for your database!

I don't know if you already have it or not.

Wow and more wow. Love those stands. One of those is definitely on the must order list.
