WTB: Saxrax Hi or Hi-Lo Alto / Tenor Stand

[saxhound]

The title says it all. Not looking for a Lo only stand.

I don't think they make them anymore. Have you pinged Paul at SaxRaxUs@yahoo.com? If that doesn't work, I have his personal email addie. Good luck.

I have been in contact with Paul. They have discontinued them. That's why I am looking to buy used.

 

[Gandalfe]

Should have know you would have had Paul's contact info. Any word on why they were discontinued? Was there a balance or weight problem?

 

[saxhound]

I'm not sure. He checked with his folks in the UK, and said it couldn't be done.

I've been playing a lot of stand up rock gigs on tenor and bari lately. Crowded stages and clumsy bone players make me nervous. Throw in the arthritis in my knees and back, and I don't like bending over all the time to grab the horn.

I've been using one of these:

I'm not worried about it tipping over, but it just doesn't grip the horn very well.
