Superb purchase
Anonymous 13.03.2017
Top build quality and materials, ships folded, actually it has dual mounts on each rack, so this means you could easliy fit 10 electric guitars (2 / slot) or 5 normal / bigger guitars (bass, acoustic, or electro-acoustic) with wider bodies. The material used really allows you to put nitro-lacked guitars in the slots without damage, I bought this especially to display my Gibson LP, as it would be a pity to let that sit in its' case anyway. So far no damage shown to any of my guitars racked in this. It is s also pretty light, so transport (I mean pushing / lifting it from one room to another, or one corner to another) inside your studio / room / whatever should not be an issue.
If you fold it, it can fit under the bed, behind or inside the wardrobe so does not take up much space, and it looks really well built and long lasting. Seems to be tough and sturdy to, as once I smacked a chair from the tabletop during cleaning right onto the rack an it survived without a scratch. Price is decent I think (compared to others, or the wall mounts I bought before) and even though it's white on the top, it can really make it as a decorative part of my living room, not to mention that my guitars look really organized now too. 5/5 would totally buy it again.

K&M Stand
Anonymous 11.07.2015
I bought this stand and the Hercules stand to compare and see if it was worth an extra 50,-Euro. This is absolutely hands down the most stable and well built stand on the market. Plus, the guitars do not have a lean to them so they can be placed directly against the wall, unlike the hercules. Lastely, the rubber feels so high quality compared to the cheap foam on the hercules - this one wins 100%. Why I took off a star is the clear rubber is ALREADY starting to yellow (I do not smoke) so if aesthetics are important to you and you don't have nitro instruments go for the black one. I hate how clear/white rubber turns yellow!!!!!! Like Wii controllers - they look gross/used after such a short time!

An Excellent Guitar Rack
Robert9809 09.10.2020
I bought this after first going with Hercules but I found the latter held the instruments at an angle too severe for where it was to go in my home studio.

This is a different kettle of fish all together, they stand up very straight indeed so you are not wasting space at the back and the nitro friendly version looks very cool indeed. The rubber is not pure white but it is not far off.

It's built to last for sure, Made In Germany was a nice thing to see also. Folds easily and sets up in seconds if that is what you want from it. This is purely static and the folding feature was not a major requirement. I needed something to stand the basses and guitars upright with minimum lean. It holds them very securely and feels solid even when instruments are doubled up.

Says it can hold five and up to ten, I have two acoustics on it, three basses, a semi-acoustic and two regular bodied guitars and they do not look crammed onto it at all.

The only trouble I had was with a Warwick Thumb bass with it's small body, it was not quite big enough to span the base to be held correctly. I solved this by simply adding a piece of foam pipe lagging which cure the fit instantly.

A really excellent product at a great price.

Same for all these K&M stands, they rule
Medvedotron 10.02.2019
As for all of these nitro-friendly stands from K&M. They're lightweight but not unstable, they can not damage your nitro lacquer even when used for extended periods of time, they have place to store your picks and they are foldable. With nice build quality (this piece was perferct compared to the others I've bought) and reliability it's a must buy in case you're looking for a bit different look than standard black one but you don't want to spend too much on fancy looking wood ones.

Mahtava ständi, 100% suosittelu!
Jos ei veikkaa ei voi voittaa 11.01.2022
Todella tukeva teline, materiaalit ovat laadukkaita ja tuntuvat todella kestäviltä. Aivan täydellinen teline, jos kaipaa useammalle kitaralle sekä akustisille, että sähkökitaroille. Kitarat eivät kolhi toisiaan tässä telineessä. Suosittelen jokaiselle, täysin hintansa arvoinen.

Works well as long as you leave it alone
Fiddler 27.06.2022
It's fine, does the job. Depending on your guitars you may or may not have to leave parts of one guitar leaning on another, or may have them bang together when you try to get one out of the rack. The materials seem cheap but nothing has broken as I have never moved the rack anywhere.

Nice product
Yggy 21.07.2021
Nice product, one downside... distance to the floor is too short, my Fender bass hits the floor if I am not pitting it on a stand extremely carefully, I would advice K&M to make floor clearance higher, Otherwise, - great product

Perfect

Stable, looks good, doesn't mar the finish. Highly recommend buying the wheel set - makes these easy to move even when stacked full of instruments.
