"Amazing quality. That's that."

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I am very satisfied with this product. As I said, I'll be buying more of them for my other guitars (to match my Ironbird lol). The quality would put the price of this at least an extra ten dollars.
Sound
If this was something that you could play music on, the value would be so much higher.
Features
It does what it's supposed to do!
Ease of Use
If you can't use this, you shouldn't be playing guitar.
Quality
More than what I was expecting!! It is very sturdy and looks awesome!
Value
I have a BC Rich Ironbird L.E., and this is exactly what I was looking for! I didn't want to go through the hassle of mounting wall hangers, and this was a way of doing that. Due to the Ironbird's base, I could not set it on any normal guitar stand, but this one works and it provides excellent quality.
Manufacturer Support
Never needed any support for anything I've bought off of Zzounds.
The Wow Factor
This looks amazing and you can tell it is strong and capable of holding onto your guitar. The pads on the legs are great quality and protect the body of your guitar. I will be buying this again for my other guitars!

"I'd buy one for any guitar I own"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
After all of these years I'm still shopping for this stand. I don't want another one and I've had many stands. Everything I own, including my square necked dobro sits on them. Everything else has failed me. I love this stand. I wish I'd invented it and had a better marketer.
Features
I love these stands. I owned three all of which my sons friends broke in the studio. Before that I had owned them for 7 years.
Ease of Use
I love taking these to gigs. 20 seconds and they're up and ready for any axe I own.
Quality
I never had a problem with them until my son's friends decided they were chairs. The lock rounded out after that experience but since none of my guitars weigh as much as my son's friends I'm shopping for about five more.
Value
Typical selling price if we're talking about street value is OUTSTANDING!

"Great stand, buy it!"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
As far as I'm concerned, this is the only guitar stand I'll be owning, it works for electric or acoustic, flat, arched or round bowl back. The shape or depth of the instrument is not an issue, only that it has a reasonable width on the neck near the headstock. I haven't tried a wide neck instrument like a classical guitar, but I have used it for several electrics and an Ovation deep bowl.
Features
This is by far the best guitar stand I've owned. It has a slight backward stance and the guitar headstock hangs in the V and the bottom of the guitar rests against the padding on both legs of the stand. The stand is sturdy and folds up compact when traveling.
Quality
The stand is made by Ultimate and I've found their products to be easy to use and well constructed.
Value
The stand is well worth the money. I've had it for several years and it still works perfectly.
Manufacturer Support
Can't answer as to support, haven't needed them.
The Wow Factor
It does have a certain "appeal", the guitar hangs in the V cradle, and it's not like any other stand on the market, so it has visual appeal as well as being functional. Also, because the guitar doesn't have to "sit" on any legs or cradle, guitar cords don't get in the way if their input jacks are in a spot that causes trouble on conventional stands.

"Ultimate is Right! Excellent & Quality Stand"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
The really good reviews on zZounds and elsewhere is why I purchased this stand. I was willing to pay premium to get a Premium Last Forever (or close to forever) guitar stand for both my Taylor Acoustic and Taylor T5. The reviews were right! I gig solo every single week and it's important for me to have quality dependable equipment right down to the cables, stands, and accessories to assure worry free performances. I cannot believe how inexpensive this stand is for it's quality. The pad material anywhere the instrument touches is a perfect firm-softness to cradle safely even the most expensive guitar. The folded size is small enough to fit my gig case and it's one touch lever for height extension is firm and will expand for any taller instrument including room to be able to leave your guitar plugged in if you want. Very sturdy and strong with a nice quality weight but not overly heavy. Headstock strap at the top is thick rubber for good tipover protection. Not worried about my expensive instruments on this stand at all. The locking knob on the bottom is plastic, but seems to be the kind of quality that will last. It solidly locks and unlocks. I purchased one to evaluate before choosing between this and the Hercules which is twice the price and after placing my guitar on the stand, I immediately came and ordered the second one for my Taylor T5. And zZounds? I have spent thousands here and I will never purchase from another source unless I have to have it and Z just doesn't have it. I get almost everything in only 1 day free shipping and never more than 2 day free shipping. If you are back and forth between guitar stands.....you can be assured this is a quality stand with a limited lifetime warranty that will do the job very well.
Sound
It's a Stand.....but the review requires a response.
Features
Mentioned in description. Compact when folded, levers and moving parts work solidly and firmly. The materials are top notch quality.
Ease of Use
Take it out of gig bag, pop it open, lock it and you're done. Perfect!
Quality
Very good quality and very solid. While height lever, headstock piece, and leg locking knob are plastic, they seem very thick, solid, and should last a long time.
Value
Can't believe the quality of this stand for this kind of price point. Excellent value!
Manufacturer Support
Never had to deal with them, but with a limited lifetime warranty I'm not worried should I ever have to.
The Wow Factor
Wow enough in quality that I came and ordered a second one immediately.

Ultimate Support GS-100 Customer Review

Overall: 4 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I still prefer the 200
Features
I prefer the GS200. The support on the bottom seems a bit more comfortable, as I would think hanging the guitar by the neck would put added stress on the instrument. Still the foldable portability of either of these stands is amazing. I own three and plan on getting a forth. HOWEVER my bass will not fit in the 200 with the cable, and is simply too long to fit the 100. The only thing that bugs me, is that I lost the rubber hook on one of mine...
The Wow Factor
I wanted it. You should to... i guess?

"Excellent Instrument Stand..."

It's light weight, sturdy, easy to use, packs-down for easy transport, reasonably priced... what more can I say except... GET YOURSELF ONE!
Features
I like the "hang-by-the-neck" concept. It's light-weight, yet sturdy, and adjustable.
Quality
I'd give it a 10, but nothing's perfect...
Value
I thought the price was right.
The Wow Factor
I'll be getting another real soon, because I bought a 5-string bass, so I'm going to have to be able to "hang" it, too...

It's sturdy. It's better for the neck of your guitar. It's quick and easy to take or place your guitar to and from the stand. And it feels more secure than regular guitar stands where your guitar seems like it can mover around. The pick holder and security strap are pluses

Very easy to take and place guitar from the stand.

Excellent stand for stage or home use
Features
Holds the guitar securely, no matter whether it's a solid-body or acoustic - when playing live using cables, you don't have to worry about the cable hitting any part of the stand so, you can leave your guitar plugged in without problems. Very solid and stable. Super fast to put guitar on/off it - even during quick changeovers on stage.
Quality
Excellent built quality - sturdy and well made.
