Nice sturdy, music stand. Very quick and easy to assemble.
5 Stars
Nice sturdy, music stand. Very quick and easy to assemble.
I like the sturdiness of this music stand. Manhasset stands are very durable and have been around for generations. We used them in junior high school band in the late 1970s when things were made durable and well. This looks exactly the same as memory serves me. If you have wooden floors there are some protectors they sell for the legs so if you drag the stand it wouldn’t scratch nice floors. The light is not included, so if you play at night or in dim lighting you may want to buy a light.This was easy to assemble with a ratchet and a standard screwdriver. The company tells you the size for English and Metric size of the ratchet.I am looking for clips or someway to hold a heavy 100 song music book open. I am thinking clips of some kind. They would have to have pretty wide jaws and be rubberized to protect the paper music and metal stand. Any ideas out there?
