[Trombone-l] Collapsible Music Stand

[Brian Boyes]

I had a chance to use a Hercules stand for a while and found it was great.
The two things I liked best were that it has a locking grip you use to raise
and lower it. Very useful if you have to stand for solos. Second was the
base actually tilts. So I could set the base further away from my feet, but
still move the desk to within optimal viewing distance.

If you want a carrying case, I found a baseball bat case works well and is
much cheaper than the Hercules case.

Dear Listers,

I am in need of a collapsible music stand of the sturdy Manhasset  
variety, i.e. a solid holder, strong column, etc, but neatly  
collapsible.  Do you have any recommendations?

Thanks for the advice.
