Customer Reviews

Works fine but smells bad
They weren't kidding when the instructions noted that the guitar stand might smell. We followed their advice and put it outside in the sun to air out but that only helped a little. After a few weeks, the noxious rubber/plastic smell is finally wearing off. Otherwise, it is sturdy and trouble free at a great price.

Great Item and Deal
This stand is exactly what I hoped it would be. It is all I want or need from a stand. I do not intend to travel around with it but it would be easy to fold up to do so. The strap for across the neck of the guitar to hold it into place is a great plus too. Can't beat it for the price and American Musical Supply shipped this item the next business day after ordering. Delivery cost was low and it arrived in just a few days standard shipping to Texas.

A Very Different Experience
I have not had the positive experience with the XCG4 that other reviewers on this site have had. There are two main problems:
1. The arms at the bottom of the stand which cradle the guitar from underneath swivel wildly and at the slightest touch. Just the act of removing the guitar from the stand can cause the lower arms to swivel out of place so that when I return the guitar to the stand, the lower arms are often turned the wrong way and unless I carefully turn the lower arms back to the correct position before placing the guitar back on the stand, my guitar is likely to go crashing to the floor.
2. The velveteen rubber padding wants to constantly slide off the upper arms leaving the guitar neck exposed to bare metal. The little plastic stoppers at the ends of the arms are supposed to prevent this from happening but when the padding starts to slide off, the stoppers offer little or no resistance and just pop out so I must constantly be pushing the padding back into position and pushing the stoppers back into the ends of the arms. And of course, with the stoppers constantly popping out and rolling across the floor, eventually and inevitably you will lose them, but that's OK because they don't do any good anyway.
