Detail 01
Trombone-specific cradle
Shaped around the bell and slide of a trombone, so the horn seats without the slide taking weight.

HerculesDS520B Trombone Stand
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A dedicated trombone stand from Hercules. For players who want the horn off the floor and out of chair traffic between sets.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Rehearsal and pit work where the horn goes down repeatedly
- Doubling players switching instruments mid-set
- Keeping the horn upright and visible on a crowded stage
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Trumpet, euphonium or other brass without a matching cradle
- Players who only need storage — a case does that for free
- Anyone wanting a stand that also folds into the bell
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Stand-style, not in-bell
The horn rests on the stand rather than a peg inside the bell; slower to grab than an in-bell design.
Detail 03
Tripod base
Wider footprint than a peg stand. More stable on uneven stages, more floor space used.
Detail 04
Hercules stand line
Uses Hercules mounting parts, so replacement pads and pegs from the same line fit.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check the cradle fits your bell size, especially bass or large-bore horns
- 02No bag or case is included for transporting the stand
- 03Measure your pit or stage space — a tripod base takes real floor room
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will it hold a bass trombone?
Check the bell diameter against the cradle. Large-bore and bass bells are wider than a straight tenor and may not seat properly.
02Can I leave the slide on the horn?
The stand is shaped to hold an assembled trombone. Seat the horn so the bell section carries the weight, not the slide.
03Does it fold up for transport?
The tripod legs collapse for carrying. No bag is included, so it goes loose in the car or gear trunk.
04Will this work for my trumpet?
No. The cradle is shaped for a trombone. A trumpet needs its own stand or peg.
