2OK if you don't mind the fixed angle music shelf  Nov 23, 2007 By Victor H. Agresti "remodeling-guy"
Hamilton KB50 Music Stand

Why on earth Hamilton Corporation markets a music stand with a non-adjustable music shelf is beyond me. I tried a brand new one that a friend had just purchased, but wanted to sell cheap. He hadn't realized it came with a fixed shelf angle when he bought it, but didn't tell me that when he offered it for sale.

The first "feature" I didn't like was that it used a knob to lock-in the stand height. (Am used to Manhasset stands and the better Hamilton stands, which have no knobs.) The knob works fine in most situations, such as home use. However, when you have to stand up and play at a gig because of an individual solo or the section is featured, and need to quickly raise the stand with one hand, you can't do it with the KB50. Even worse, if you try to raise the stand by pulling up on the music shelf, the whole shelf can come off.

I then tried to adjust the shelf angle to my liking, which, of course, wasn't possible. (The top couple of inches of the stand's "pole" is flattened and bent backwards to slip into a receiving slot in the music shelf.) At many rehearsals or gigs, adjusting my music shelf angle at least once is needed. For example, the music is at the very bottom of a photo-copied page. So, a fixed angle shelf was a deal-breaker, even at the ten bucks he wanted.

Due to the stand's small "feet", this is not a good choice for playing outside on soft ground - it can sink into grass for example.

If you don't mind the "knob lock-in" or the fixed shelf angle, and will never need to raise it quickly at a performance, this is an inexpensive and quite sturdy, all metal stand.

I bought the much better Manhasset Voyager folding stand for rehearsals & gigs, which can be raised/lowered with one hand, and has a fully adjustable music shelf; with no knobs needed for adjustments.

4Good Value  Mar 03, 2007 By Thomas E. Blackman
The music stand works much better than the fold up metal kind. The only problem with it is that the top is not adjustable. It is set at a pretty good angle but it would be nice to adjust the angle. Overall it is a good stand.

5Nice stand  Mar 19, 2007 By Clarinetman
This stand is exactly as described in the vendor's notes. It is a sturdy stand with sufficient room for my sheet music. The angle of the easel section is not adjustable, but it matters not to me. It just works well.
