Growing up, all I knew was Manhasset music stands. They are heavy duty, reliable, and durable (which is why middle schools buy them). A few months ago, I was in the market for 2 music stands so, naturally, I looked at Manhasset. Unfortunately, I would have had to take out a second mortgage to afford a couple of those. And thus began my search for a new music stand.
AmazonBasics generally makes solid products. I've purchased a few basic (pun intended) items of this brand before and have always been satisfied. Music stands, however, are things that you absolutely CANNOT have fail. Could you imagine having one fall, throwing your music everywhere while a thousand judging eyes stare into your soul? A nightmare, I say! Price wise, the AmazonBasics Sheet Music Stand is about $5 below the Manhasset. In my case, that was enough of a difference to give it a try.
I have been using the AmazonBasics Sheet Music Stand for a few months now and am extremely satisfied. It is as sturdy as any stand I have used and has no chance of randomly collapsing. Once the head of the stand (the part that actually holds the sheet music) is set, it does not wilt one way or the other. The stand is balanced on three legs and does not wobble to and fro. In fact, the stand does not even move when someone unintentionally (or intentionally) nudges it because it comes with rubber footings. This is a huge deal if you set your stand in place before performing and leave it for a few minutes.
A few things to note about the stand:
1. It does not come assembled. It took be about 5 minutes to put it together.
2. The head WILL come off if you try to extend the stand by pulling the head. Pull the silver neck up, not the head. This is the one downside to this stand.
3. The head can be put on crookedly (trust me, I did it). Make sure you get a good look at it before you tighten it on.
4. It can hold a hymnal without retracting.
5. It does not easily scratch (I've loaded it and unloaded from the bed of a truck many times).
All in all, this stand is the best on the market for the price. I will be purchasing more, even when I have the five extra dollars to buy the Manhasset. If you are looking for a good music stand, buy this and be satisfied (and support Amazon)!
Typically I only see these used for orchestras or chamber musicians, in which there isnt a lot of movement anyway, and everyone is usually seated with the exception of the percussion section.
If you have ever had a stand (usually a mic stand vs a music stand) fall over in the middle of a set - or worse a recording session - it can be frustrating. This stand second in stability only to the disk type, normally reserved for microphones on a dynamic stage.
Especially when recording, and when you are already concerned about the copious wires and contraptions in front of you, it's good to have one less thing to worry about.
JHA
The one thing I'm disappointed with is the pivot joint that allows you to adjust the angle of the music holder. I have it tightened as far as it can go and it is still somewhat loose and easy to move. That's the only thing I would change about this music stand.
Note you do have to really tighten down everything. Also, the height adjustment is a little odd, because it basically pulls out of the black tubing that is the base of the stand, but it's works and doesn't slide down, even with the weight of a sheet music book, violin hanger, 4/4 violin, and a bow.

Du fait qu'il ne se plie pas, vous ne pourrez pas le transporter facilement. Cela reste possible - je l'imagine, mais pour ma part, cela n'entrait pas dans mes critères de choix. J'en voulais un solide, avec sa place attitré, et sur ces points je suis ravi.
Suffisamment profond, solide, pour tenir plusieurs cahiers et classeurs de partitions. Peut-être pas assez solide pour écrire dessus en revanche, s'il vous fallait annoter vos compositions. Mais ça ferait sûrement l'affaire, parce que ce lutrin est une bonne affaire.
Son pied est stable, assez lourd, et sa tige télescopique est de loin le plus pratique dispositif pour ne pas vous ennuyer lorsqu'il vous plaît de subitement jouer assis ou debout. Et cela est un point à prendre au sérieux lorsqu'on étudie plusieurs heures.
C'était le pupitre que je cherchais. La même facture que sur lequel je travaillais dans mon école de musique. Je ne peux que le conseiller.
Si je lui trouvais un défaut, à l'avenir, après plusieurs usages, je ne manquerai pas de vous le signaler en éditant ce commentaire.
Bonne journée et bon achat si vous sautez le pas.
