But How Does It Work? It Works Great!<\/h3>\n

This part of the story picks up where Part\u00a02<\/a> left off. The new bass saxophone stand that Andreas Kaling came up with, and had metal designer Ferdy Rose<\/a> manufacture, is now assembled.<\/p>\n

After watching a few more videos of Deep Schrott<\/a><\/em>\u2014and paying particular attention to how they position their horns in their stands\u2014I made some adjustments.<\/p>\n

Now that I have the legs of the stand in the\u00a0best position to give it the greatest stability, and the lower support brace adjusted a bit higher than I originally had it, this new bass stand is amazing. It is strong, supportive, and incredibly stable.<\/p>\n

Playing While Sitting<\/h4>\n

I’ve used this stool for playing for years. I use it not only in my studio, but also at shows that last longer than 1 set… In other words any show we play at that isn’t a festival.<\/p>\n

I got it from a friend of mine who owned a\u00a0couple of hair dressing salons. It is intended for stylists to sit on when they cut your hair. It adjusts in height, so it is ideal for whatever size of sax you play.<\/p>\n

If you\u00a0prefer to play your\u00a0bass more\u00a0transversely, this stands allows you to do so. You can adjust it for even more of an angle if you wish. This is my preferred angle of playing while seated.<\/p>\n

Transverse playing is now possible too while standing, and you no longer have to wear your 18 lb sax from your neck to do so.<\/p>\n

I am really pleased with\u00a0my new bass sax stand. If you’re looking for a really versatile stand that will allow you to play your bass either in a sitting or standing position, and even allow you to adjust the angle at which you play, then this might very well be the stand for you.<\/p>\n

Apparently I’m not the only person who thought this stand was a great invention for bass saxophone players. After Andreas read my previous articles he sent me a couple of testimonials from other players who bought the stands. I thought I’d share them here.<\/p>\n

This first one is from a player in the USA:<\/p>\n

The stand arrived today. It is wonderful. Your workmanship is excellent. It is all that I hoped it would be.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The second comment is from a player in France:<\/p>\n

I have recovered the stand. And I just tried it: fabulous! I’m very happy to blow my Conn in these very good conditions. Very, very good product, and a very fine idea… This stand fit very well with my bass Beaugnier too…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

These stands are not available through stores. They are only available through special order from\u00a0Andreas<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I’d also like to go on record and state that I’m not associated with Andreas in any way, and\u00a0have no financial interests in his business. I receive no remuneration for sales of his stands. I’m only writing about them because I believe in the product, and think that the bass sax playing community could benefit from the knowledge of their existence.<\/p>\n

If you would like to know more about these high quality stands, please contact Andreas directly<\/a>. He\u00a0would be happy to answer any questions you may have. He’s a very nice guy. I’ve found him to be a real pleasure to deal with throughout this whole exchange.<\/p>\n
