guitar stand

had some time to loose so i went to check out prices of microphone stands at peninsula shopping centre. they have a few music/guitar shops in this building and some at excelsior. located one decent one at $45 at the basement shop of peninsula and mic holder sells separately at $4.50. shop assistant was kind enuff to show me the whole setup.

will hold buying the mic stand first til i get and test out the premium mic that is supposedly in the US market at USD50. if the mic gives me better scre i will consider the mic stand/tripod.

bandmate marka was too shopping around for a mic stand.

next i proceeded to yamaha at thomson plaza and got myself a cheap guitar stand at $27++.

the dismantled stand

base tripod legs are foldable. the base with the rubber is adjustable to a comfy height.

the shaft with the neck housing. the middle postion will adjust for the height of the neck support.

this is not the correct way to hold the guitar using this stand. due to the light weight of our plastic rock band fender, it will fall off if knocked.

with the neck adjusted to a height that your guitar rest gently at the bottom and held up by the neck, a knock on the guitar will not slip the guitar to the floor but held nicely at it's neck. the stand earns a spot beside my bed.
