Note: Not suitable for permanent use on guitars with nitro lacquer.
Every guitarist and bassist's worst fear is that their cherished instrument might one day suffer damage, especially when said instrument isn't in their protective hands. Instrument stands, though useful, always carry a measure of risk: Reckless bandmates, inattentive children, and even household pets can become random sources of destruction – and not everyone is as careful as the owner of the instrument. The Xvive G1 Butterfly Guitar Stand was developed to solve this very issue. Designed in Germany, this innovative stand features three key characteristics: High stability, maximum security, and easy portability. The Xvive G1 Butterfly Guitar Stand's two-tiered cradle can accommodate almost any electric, acoustic, classical, or bass guitar. Other stringed instruments such as mandolins can also rest safely on this stand during musical breaks.
The arms of the XVive G1 Butterfly Guitar Stand are made from durable yet lightweight aluminium, with silicone padding at contact points to protect the instrument. The stand rests on four non-slip silicone feet, which provide greater stability than the traditional three-legged stands. When set up, a strong neodymium magnet holds the structure firmly together for added stability. The XVive G1 Butterfly Guitar Stand weighs only 800 grams, and given its dimensions of 337x62x255mm (LxWxH) when folded, is easily portable. Thanks to a practical and innovative design, the XVive G1 Butterfly Guitar Stand can be set up or folded in seconds.
The XVive G1 Butterfly Guitar Stand is an excellent choice for guitarists and bassists seeking to secure their instrument while they're not using it. On stage, bandmates aren't always mindful and at home, accidents can happen. The XVive G1 Butterfly Guitar Stand's clever design minimises the chances of damage. For musicians on the road, the XVive G1 Butterfly Guitar Stand will certainly also come in handy. Set up and packed away in no time, it makes making "life on the go" easier, and fits neatly into any gig bag or backpack.
