Re: K&M vs Hercules- advice needed

Hi,

I have several Hercules clarinet stands and used the in-bell one just once. While the compact in-bell one is a clever idea, the center of balance when the instrument is in the stand is too high. The result was the instrument was easily knocked over resulting in me having to have many bent keys re-adjusted. Things were pretty wobbly.

Instead, consider getting an accessory bag and thus having room for the triple stand which is very solid. I use a surplus military flight helmet bag and have all sorts of extra pockets. Music folders fit easily in the bag and there are extra pockets for waters bottles, spare glasses, etc.
