Customer reviews about Hercules Stands HC-DS-571BB Violin Viola Stand

Y

Probably the best violin stand I know

Yggdrasill 08.06.2021

Does the job perfectly and safely.
The mechanism to grab the violin is smart and works well (the "jaws" could open a bit more when the violin is lifted, but that's not the end of the world).
The bow hook is far enough from the violin scroll to ensure that those two never touch each others, which was my concern with cheaper violin stands.

Even with a shoulder rest, the violin fits very well.
100% satisfied.

A nice stand for holding your gigs!

Jazz Violin Playground 16.12.2020

I'm happy with my purchase. The stand it's quite stable though sometimes if you hit the stand which is light there's a really small chance of dropping your violin. So avoid to have it close to crowds.
Ideal for gigs. Hercules makes sturdy equipment. It's light and small to carry. I can take it everywhere with me, fits in my bag. No more having my case on stage! Recommend it!

Not for the road

Michael C. 3 26.10.2016

I play with a busy function band. Hercules have a rep for good sturdy roadworthy products. I know the mic and speaker stands are good from fellow musicians. However, as nice as this violin stand is it hasn't stood the test of time. I have plenty of other boom stands/mic stands/guitar stands that have all been gigged for years and are still working fine. Of course it goes without saying that I look after my gear. This stand is more suited for home use or in a studio where its not going to face the rigours of regular live gigging. It still works but it became unstable and loose within a few months of purchase. I have now retired it to my home studio. Would not recommend for a gigging musician. It would be fine for home use or a teaching studio in my opinion.

stable and easy to use

TootToot 09.01.2019

Very easy to setup and get working. Even though it's not sold as a portable model, it folds up compactly enough that it's easy enough to carry around when necessary.

The quick grip works exactly as advertised and holds the violin securely.

The additional bit for the holding the bow is a clever design addition.

Excellent stand

Anonymous 28.11.2015

This stand is a really useful. Instead of having to constantly put the violin back in it's case, you hang it from the neck on the stand. The stand is really sturdy and well made. You get a nice cloth bag to carry it round in too. The tray is really useful to put your rosin, mutes and other bits in and the stand is telescopic so you can set it at the perfect height for you. If you have an expensive violin, you need a stand that you are really confident with and this one delivers on all fronts. Having said that, if you have a million euro / dollar / pound stradivarius, you might just want to put it back in your case to be on the safe side.

Hercules outstanding on its own

Anthony6406 16.02.2015

What a great stand. I've been using Hercules stands for my violins for years. They are sturdy and strong and always keeps both Violin and Bow safe in any stage environment. It also fits in the top compartment of my violin case.

Nice

Anonymous 17.04.2014

Simple and easy to use. The rosin element is not mounted well when the stand is packed in it's bag, so it might get lost!
Not that classy but it does the work.
The locking element is perfect, as in all hercules stands.
I prefer the old violin stand from hercules which is discontinued i suppose.
