The GS8200 Hang-it ProGrip II stand gives you security and operating convenience in a single stand. The neck of the stand closes as soon as the guitar or bass is placed on it to prevent it from falling and opens as soon as the instrument is picked up. The tripod legs are padded to accommodate any type of traditionally shaped guitar or bass. Additionally, the neck height adjusts between 30" and 43". The tripod base provides stability and balance and can be folded for transport or storage.
