The Manhasset music stand is our most popular music stand. The stand is used by more schools than all other brands of music stands combined. It is perfect for orchestras, school bands, and individual musicians that demand high quality and durability. This has proven to be the longest lasting and most durable music stand made. The rugged, light weight, and all-aluminum desk is ribbed for extra strength. A baked-on, glare-free, black textured finish resists scratches and chipping. The desk measures 20" wide x 12.5" high and the height of the stand varies infinitely from 26" to 48" (lip to floor) with a maximum overall height of 60.5". The easy, automatic, no-knob friction-tilt neck delivers constant tension at any tilt position. Solid brass bearings, a greaseless heavy-duty chrome inner shaft, and the original counterbalanced Magic Finger Clutch provides one hand friction grip. It is secure at any height, even with a heavy load of music. The heavy gauge, all-steel welded base provides excellent stability and requires minimum space on stage risers or in storage.
