What We’re All About.
We are living in the midst of what will someday be remembered as the "Golden Age" of the guitar. This renaissance has resulted in hundred of advancements in instrument designs, innovations, and advances in the luthier's art. If you are a serious guitarist, you likely have invested thousands of dollars in your instrument collection. You enjoy playing them, admiring them, and showing them off. After all, they are not simply instruments, but fine works of art. So then, why would you display guitars worth thousands in a cheap guitar stand that is not only flimsy and not particularly well-made, but also does nothing to show off your instruments to their best advantage?
What you need is a guitar stand that is durable and functional - a stand that shows off your guitars, and is a beautiful work of art unto itself. In short, you need fine furniture for your guitar.
GuitarFurniture stands are hand-crafted in the United States of America from quarter-sawn oak, engineered to be both rock-solid and aesthetically pleasing. It's a stand that is as at-home in the studio, as it is in your music room at home. Designed with cues drawn from Mission-style, "Arts & Crafts" furniture, our stands are as beautiful as they are practical. But what about portability? Surely, a piece of furniture like this would be impractical to take with you on the road? Not so - each of our stands can be assembled and disassembled in less than one minute, and packs easily in our exclusive, over-the-shoulder gig bag, made from durable all-weather canvas.
Now we know what you're thinking. "Yes, this is a beautiful stand. And it looks like it would hold my instruments securely, and show them off to their best advantage. But how am I going to get my significant other to go along on this one?" Simple. Let them see the stand. In our experience, one of the biggest objections those that value style and ambience over a love of guitars see is "Hey...that'sn not one of those ugly guitar stands made out of black painted metal or chrome. It looks like a piece of fine furniture. Okay...you can put that in MY house." Sound familiar? Well, it will, once your significant other sees our stand.
Our flagship stand (shown here) holds up to six instruments at a time - any mix of acoustic or electric guitars, acoustic or electric basses, Dobros, banjos, twelve-strings - you name it. Our ingenuous (if we do say so ourselves) mortis and tenon design allows us to put the stand together with no screws, no nails, and no metal parts of any kind. Every part on the stand functions to both secure the instruments it holds, and to hold the stand together. The six-instrument stand is 39" wide, 23" deep, and 33" tall. It weighs in at around 22 pounds – about the same as a Les Paul Custom.
In the not-to-distant future, we'll be releasing an entire line of musical accessories, from single guitar stands and guitar stools, to electronic keyboard stands, each one beautiful, durable, and eminently portable.
And just so we're clear, we stand behind our stands, as well as every other product we sell. (See our warranty page for complete details.)
So when you're ready for a stand that is worth of your instruments, we're ready for you. GuitarFurniture. Fine furniture for your guitar.
