I purchased this stand for my 13yo son; he received an electric guitar for Christmas. It works great for this particular guitar and I'd highly recommend it. However, it is not quite big enough for his acoustic guitar. Thank you.

This guitar stand does NOT find hidden treasure. It does NOT hypnotize beautiful women. It does NOT fix your transmission. It does NOT tell your boss to give you a raise.

It just holds onto your guitar when you don't see any reason to put into a case. It's sturdy, reliable and to the point. No gimmicks, nothing flashy. Just a guitar stand that is reasonably priced. If you need one, might as well be this one.

I have this stand for over a year now and I never have to worry my guitar will fall off the stand. The rubber that touches the guitar (the 2 Us) are softer rubber (similar to the OXO tool's rubber) so it gives great grips that the guitar won't slide around or damaged by knocking on it. The end of each legs also have softer rubber that grips well with any type of hard flooring yet it's stable on carpet as how the weight is evenly distributed. The price is great and I'll recommend this.

It's not very stable on carpet. It's easy to knock over but it's fine if you don't touch it. Don't expect too much with that price.

There's a stand made by Musicians Gear with better reviews and a lower price that may be a better alternative though I never tried it.Musician's Gear Tubular Guitar Stand, Black

There are a fair number of similar tripod guitar stands out there for about the same cost. If one of your pet peeves with some of these is that the U-shaped support falls out when you carry the assembled stand around, then you'll especially like the World Tour stand. The way that the U-shaped piece inserts makes it far less susceptible to falling out. And, although it is, as one other reviewer put it, "minimalistic," this stand has a substantial feel to it. I'm quite happy with this purchase, and would buy another World Tour again, rather than one of the other brands that I own. Amazon.com did a great job, too, getting this out to me.

This stand is sturdy and simple to use. It holds my bass very well - I'm not afraid of the stand falling over, even when sitting on carpet.

The only reason I did not give it five stars is because the angle of the bottom bracket is a little odd for me. It works fine, but I wish it wasn't quite as steep as it is. With that said, I would still buy another one.

Good quality and sturdy.

I'm using this with my Ibanez bass and it works great.

Like other reviewers stated, it doesn't like acoustic guitars. My Silvertone acoustic wouldn't fit in the stand.

I will definitly invest in more of these for my other electric guitars.

**Update-This stand tips over with my acoustic guitar on carpet. The guitar fits it ok, it has adjustable height, but however I try to balance it, the stand tips over. I think it might be ok for an electric, or something smaller, but the back leg is too short, I guess, for a big acoustic. On a hard floor it's a little wobbly, but will stay up. That's incontinent if you want to use the stand in a carpeted room.

I bought one for my bass guitar and was totally satisfied with it, so i ordered another one along with an electric guitar as a birthday gift for my son.

I purchased two of these for my son for Christmas, one for his acoustic guitar and the other for his electric guitar. It works well for both and he was quite pleased with the quality. They do a fine job and I would recommend them.
