K&M 17513 Guardian Translucent

I love this type of K&M guitar stands. It says "3-way" but for regular sized electric guitars/basses it can easily fit six. It will get a little bit tight so you'll have to take care not to dent/scratch anything but it works fine. This really is a 3(6)-way guitar stand with "3" being for acoustic instruments with thicker bodies and "6" being for regular sized electric instruments,

I've already got two of the 5-way stands in the same series and I've got 10 basses crammed into both of the with no problems. I just need to take care where I place the ones with tilted headstocks or pickup covers (or things can get a little TOO tight).

The white/"translucent" contact points are great for nitro finish. Especially for instruments with light colors.

Stability is superb. You will have to be a total idiot to have any accidents with this guitar stand. It is FAR more stable than cheaper brands.

The build quality is very, VERY good. If you somehow manage to break this stand it will probably involve a serious accident that kills you too. I would probably have difficulties breaking it even if I wanted to!

These stands are also very easy to collapse for transport. Superbly engineered.

They are a bit more expensive than some of the cheaper options but the cheaper brands are JUNK by comparison.

Excellent quality as always from K&M. Highly recommended!!!

I cannot praise this stand enough, really. I'm a big fan of K&M products in general, but this is brilliant. The fact that it does not hurt your instruments (especially those with nitro lacquer) since the protective elements are in place and supports the body and neck of your guitars. The neck holders are also flexible enough so you can squeeze in whatever you want - almost. It's light-weight, can easily be folded with a swift motion, and the pick-holders on the back of it is just right. Sturdy, yet portable. The only thing you may want to consider before purchasing is if you need the slightly bigger model for 5 guitars or not.
