Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

A stand for bass clarinet or bassoon that supports the instrument by its bell. For players who need a rest spot between sets or during rehearsal.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Bassoonists needing somewhere safe to park the horn mid-rehearsal
  • Bass clarinet players switching between horns in a pit
  • Practice rooms where laying the instrument down risks damage

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Soprano clarinet or flute players — the cradle is sized larger
  • Anyone wanting a stand that holds an assembled instrument on a peg
  • Players who need something that fits inside a standard case pocket

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.

Hercules DS561B Bass Clarinet/Bassoon Stand construction detail

Detail 01

Bass clarinet and bassoon compatibility

One cradle covers both, so a doubler on a single gig does not carry two stands.

Detail 02

Folding tripod base

Legs collapse for transport, but the footprint when open needs floor space beside your chair.

Detail 03

Bell-support design

Weight rests on the bell rather than a peg through the bore, so the keywork stays untouched.

Detail 04

Around 90 dollars

Mid-tier pricing for a woodwind stand; heavier and more stable than lightweight folding options.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Check your bell diameter against the cradle before buying — fit varies by maker
  2. 02No case or carry bag included for the stand itself
  3. 03Set it on level floor; a tripod on carpet edges can tip

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Does it hold both bass clarinet and bassoon?

Yes. It is designed for both, so one stand covers a doubler who plays either instrument.

02Will it fit my soprano clarinet?

No. This is sized for bass clarinet and bassoon. A soprano clarinet needs a smaller peg-style stand.

03Does it fold up for transport?

Yes, the tripod base folds. Plan for a stand that travels alongside your case rather than inside it.

04Can I leave my instrument on it during a long break?

It is built as a rest between playing. For overnight or long storage, the case is still the safer place.
