So I am planning to buy a single guitar stand from Bentley Music. The one located near IKEA and The Curve? I spotted some Hercules Brand guitar stand and planning to buy one, but I found these reviews when I was surfing the net just now.

Well I bought this stand about 5 months ago and loved it from day one. I own a Jackson Randy Rhoads Pro issue which was over a grand just for the guitar alone and it looks great on it. Now I am reading other peoples reviews and notice they are talking about the finish coming off their headstocks and when I read those I ran to my guitar and saw the same DAMN thing! DO NOT GET THIS STAND if you care about your guitar. Who is going to pay for everybodys tainted guitars??????? The foam damages your guitar so dont get it! LIARS!!!!!

If you have a guitar and you DON'T want the finish damaged, then DO NOT BUY THIS STAND!!! I got this stand on Monday March 7, 2005 at 5 p.m., put my vintage '85 G&L L2000 bass in it and let it hang over night. It did look really good in the stand I have to admit. But to my shock, the next day when I picked up the bass to play it, the finish had been completely burned off on both sides of the headstock where it had been hanging in the stand. I mean the glossy finish was completely burned off! Looked almost like someone had put a cigarette lighter to it. The manufacturer says its "specially formulated foam" or SFF is safe for all guitar finishes. That claim is definitely NOT TRUE. If you want to protect your guitar's finish, then don't put it in this stand!

Quality:
I would have given it a "10." It's well made except for the SFF foam that WILL DAMAGE YOUR GUITAR'S FINISH!!! Since it damaged mine after less than one day of use, I'm giving it a "1" for WORST.
