FF Sax Stand- Small for Soprano/Alto

£25.00

If you're not going to need to use the stand for use with a tenor saxophone, why not save money and go for this smaller design made for curved soprano and alto saxophones.

Used to prop the saxophone when it is not being used but needs to be on hand, either for display purposes or for rest intervals during practice or performance.

Its innovative design offers three significant advantages over conventional stands, making it a unique accessory:

Ease of transport: Thanks to its extra flat design and reduced dimensions, it can be carried inside the saxophone case.

Multi-purpose: The same stand can be used for two different models of saxophone: Alto and Curved Soprano Saxophone.

Adaptable to table-top and wall: The stand can be used on horizontal surfaces, such as a table, piano, floor, etc. or on vertical surfaces, such as the wall
