Product Information

Full details

The Crystals Folding Guitar Stand is an ideal solution for gigging musicians and home players who need a reliable, space-saving way to display or store their acoustic or electric guitars. It offers a perfect balance of stability and portability, ensuring your instrument is held securely while remaining easy to pack away between sessions. Please note that while the A-frame design is excellent for general use, it is not suitable for instruments with irregular body shapes or offset weights that might compromise the balance of a standard cradle.

FAQs

Will this stand fit an acoustic bass?

This stand is designed for standard electric and acoustic guitars. A bass may be too large for the cradle dimensions.

Can I leave my guitar on this stand permanently?

Yes, it is suitable for home use, provided the stand is placed in a low-traffic area where it will not be bumped.

Does it require assembly?

No, the stand comes pre-assembled and is ready to use straight out of the box.

Is the padding safe for nitrocellulose finishes?

While the foam is soft, it is always recommended to avoid long-term contact with vintage nitrocellulose finishes if possible, or use a thin cloth between the guitar and the foam.

What are the dimensions when folded?

The stand folds almost entirely flat, making it slightly thicker than the metal frame components itself.

Troubleshooting

The stand feels wobbly on the floor.

Ensure that the hinge is fully extended to its locked position and that you are placing the stand on a flat, level surface.

The foam padding is slipping.

Check that the padding is seated correctly on the metal frame. If it has shifted, gently slide it back into the proper position.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ultra-portable and folds flat for easy transport
  • Soft foam padding protects instrument finish
  • Quick setup and breakdown time
  • Sturdy construction for long-term use
  • Fits both electric and acoustic guitar profiles

Cons

  • Not suitable for heavy-duty floor storage in high-traffic areas
  • Does not include a security strap for neck support
  • Requires a flat surface for maximum stability

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the stand is straightforward: simply pull the two legs apart until the locking hinge is fully extended. Ensure the stand is placed on a level, solid surface to maintain proper balance.

Regarding compatibility, the stand is designed for standard acoustic and electric guitars; it is not recommended for instruments with highly asymmetrical body shapes, such as Flying V or Explorer style guitars, as these may not sit securely in the cradle. To maintain the stand, periodically wipe the foam padding with a dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners on the foam as they may cause degradation over time. If the hinge becomes stiff, a light application of dry lubricant can keep the folding mechanism smooth.
