Hercules DS533BB Alto/Tenor and Soprano Saxophone Stand with Bag

This stand works as needed to make the transition between two instruments such as tenor and sporano saxophones easier during school concerts. Our son is pleased with it. The price is reasonable and we love the ability to pack it in its own bag! The brand is reliable brand for musical stands, we have purchased a few of them! Thank You!

Very well built, solid stand for two instruments; alto and a soprano saxophones will fit. The stand is of decent weight and very sturdy, so it will not fall over by itself. Though it’s compact, the decent weight makes it slightly heavy, but it’s at the perfect balance of quality and compactness making it an excellent product. A better quality carry bag would be appreciated, however, it’s a minor issue that can be easily remedied by throwing it in a backpack.

There are only a few things I needed to know before I purchased this Alto/Tenor stand. 1. Did it hold my Tenor and Soprano properly? 2. Would this particular stand work properly on different surfaces? 3. Is the design portable and easy for setup for gigs/home use to easily swap for doubled soprano?Answer is .......... Yes!This particular stand is very compact, snaps into place and holds my equipment perfectly. Given that the feet sit flush to the ground, it creates a balance that keeps the instruments from wobbling while on the stand. I currently use as my pro setup a Yamaha 62-iii tenor, and an allora paris (woodwind and brasswind pro model) soprano. I am attaching a photo so you can see the setup. This stand is a great value and allows me to swap instruments with ease and securely without fear of the instruments falling.

After years of using other stands, I finally decided to go with this recommendation from a friend after my tenor got knocked off the stand by a soft bump at a gig. This thing cradles my horns. I tried to push my tenor off the side (while holding it) and it would barely budge on the stand. The soprano peg is awesome, too. There is a little fastener at the bottom that lets you slide the base up or down until the ball and the base line up and keep your soprano secure as well. I only tried it with my soprano, so I am not sure what else it may hold securely. The pieces extend and lock into place with small ball bearing snap locks. You press on the ball to release and collapse the stand.I wish I had bought this stand years ago. It would have saved me some repair bills over the years! I have been playing for over 20 years, and this is the strongest, most well-constructed stand I have encountered. It breaks down easily and the small carrying bag wits in my backpack or other packs I use.

perfect for my needs. It is just sturdy and reliable enough. It is sleek and attractive as well.

I use this for a mix of alto, tenor, and C melody saxes. They all fit pretty well, thanks to the hinged piece at the bottom. My only complaint is that it can take a minute to find a position that seems stable enough, even if I'm putting the same sax back that I just picked up. If the top was adjustable too, or if the bottom hinged piece was wider and deeper, that would probably help. Also, my soprano is a little too well attached to the peg sometimes, and I have to put my foot down on the stand leg to keep from lifting the whole stand up when picking up the soprano. But at least I know it's not going anywhere.

it's perfect since our child plays alto sax and soprano sax and this works perfect for concerts.

My son plays multiple instruments for his school bands and these Hercules stands are perfect and durable (folded and unfolded multiple times for transport) for him to be able to put his instruments on so they are ready for him to pick up and play. We also purchased the Hercules DS502B Flute/Clarinet Peg to go on this stand. I would recommend these stands, they have definitely met expectation and beyond as other students have borrowed them as well.
