Our mandolin stands were designed to work best with the most common range of mandolin sizes. You will find exact dimensions in the specifications section on each product page. If you have an octave mandolin, or similar larger mandolin-type instrument, you may find that our regular guitar stand may fit better. Have an unusual mandolin? We can also do custom yokes. Just contact us to learn more.
The only three points of contact with your mandolin are the yoke and a pad on each wing. These contact points are covered with finish friendly genuine suede leather.
When your mandolin is placed properly on a Solid Ground Stand, it is held much like it is when you play standing up, with your hand “holding” the neck and the mandolin’s back leaning against you. Your mandolin hangs on the stand from the headstock then leans back to rest comfortably against the leather pads on the wings. This 3-contact point arrangement securely holds your mandolin without undo stress and prevents it from swinging loosely on the stand.
All our products are finished with natural hand-rubbed oil and wax. This traditional fine furniture finish achieves a durable surface with a nicely subdued sheen and a silky feel. It can be refreshed if needed with regular furniture wax.
Yes. The simplest way to learn how is to watch the demo video. But basically, the “wings” fold back against the sides of the “neck”, and the “leg” pivots so that the magnets in the leg meet the magnets in the wings. The magnets will hold the stand in this closed position for easy placement into the carry bag. To unfold the stand, simply pivot the leg to the rear to release the magnets and let the stand unfold. There are also magnets behind and within the hinges that assist in holding the stand in its open position as you move it around the room.
