Can anyone recommend a source for floor stands to hold a Georgeboard 8 and a t-Logo rick? Local store's guitar stands are either too wide on the bottom or too narrow at the neck. thanks

Try the Peavey-distributed foam Axtek stands, they handle most of my steel with no issues. It might be better to get one of the Guitar Center 3-guitar racks and lower the sides so the Rick will fit. I have done it and it is easy.

Doesn't seem to be any net info.on Axtek stands...nothing on Peavey's site or by Google-ing, or any of the internet retailers. Question

Keith, do you have a URL? thanks!

Anyone tried the MSA floor stand? The neck looks wide enough for most, bottom looks like it might be ok.

Someone recommended the Hercules Classical Guitar stand as its supposed to have a wide yoke.

Finding something suitable seems much harder than I imagined. I figured all you folks had something that works and I'm the only one that has to leave it on the sofa !

Please do...I'm happy to have 2 stands. I don't need a double.

I just want to hold my babies up to look at--no to play on. Surely there's something simplier.

I've seen pix of some of you lap players' collections and you don't hang them all on the wall. How the heck do you stand them up???

This should be easy for you guys and gals !

By the way, Merry Christmas to all of you

Was looking at new catalog from Janet Davis Music, check out the Ultra II stand looks like that would handle a bunch of different sized instruments.
