I like to stand at my performances, and most collapsable stands are too narrow when they are elevated to standing height. This one shows promise. It's not quite as rock solid as I'd like, but I have a few ideas to strengthen the loose areas. After all - it's only $50, so I didn't expect miracles. I also ordered this scrim to cover the wires, etc, and I plan to light it from underneath. (looks WAY cool)

The On Stage boom extensions work great in the tube end, as well.

I'm assuming you haven't used it on a job yet, so I look forward to your review after that ...

I'm going to mess with it today, and hopefully try it Wednesday. Fingers crossed - always looking for better ideas.

Heres a few more pics. I use Velcro straps to attach this $7 Home Depot shelve to add more stability from the drunks who pass by. This seriously may work. I can't wait to try the lighted scrim later today.

Dave, my concern would be it's inability to tilt. Elevated for stand-up playing, some guys like a little tilt. However, I suppose you could put some kind of wedge or something at the back and under the shelf unit if this were a problem. Of course you still need the little can of black spray paint smile.

Ooooo, not me, my friend. I like it parallel to the ground. At this current height, it feels the same as if I'm seated at an acoustic piano key bed. I can't think of anyone that tilts a kb, unless it's a double, or triple tier setup. Cuirious - would you tilt it AWAY from you, or towards you?
