Gator Cases Rack Style Guitar Stand, Holds up to (4) Acoustic, Electric, or Bass Guitars (GTRSTD4)

I was skeptical of buying this based off of people’s issues with them seeming to break because of poor construction but I took a chance on it. I’m very happy with it! It seems rock solid. I compared mine to previous pics in the reviews and Gator definitely seemed to update these stands to have heavy duty screws holding it together now instead of the wimpy nails previously mentioned.

First of all, I never write reviews - but buyers need to be aware of this.I have used Gator cases for years and assumed their name was synonymous with quality. That is not so with this case. The design is ingenious but the quality (or lack thereof) leaves me stunned and pissed off - so much so that I'll be using custom cases or at least SKB from now on. Look at those pics. A case that sells for $365.00 should not be basically stapled together with the smallest nails possible. I bought this case for road use. After we hit the road for a three month tour, I ended up only using three guitars - so I just used a Hercules stand. This Gator case was only used ONCE. When we got back home I opened it up and it fell apart (smashing my finger in the process). So, I will be spending the day trying to creative put it back together in a way it will hold - something I thought I paid Gator for. There is absolutely NO EXCUSE for putting this on the market.

I'm a working musician, I carry three guitars and often play on a cramped stage where there isn't much room. This does a great job, but it's really heavy, 24 lbs. Impressed with the sturdiness.

This is a great case, with 1 design flaw. The top section of the stand, mounted on the lid of the case, is nailed with skinny nails and should be redesigned. The nails had been pulled right through the case lid and was completely detached when it was received.I didn't return it because as I said, it is a design flaw and would be the same on a replacement.I fixed it by adding a 1x2 screwed into the lid - then screwed the top part of the stand to the 1x2. I painted the 1x2 to make it look like the original design.See pictures.

After seeing a few different brands of this type of case owned by acquaintances, I took a chance an purchased this one.THIS CASE IS MUCH STURDIER. More costly, but in my eyes well worth it.

I ordered this for my band base player Sin Quirin from "Lords of Acid." I was very specific I needed it at my house in Arizona by February 21. They were leaving for tour that day. I got the Gator Case in on the day the tour started. Sin Quirin opened it up, and the entire rack and stand that folds up, to hold six guitars, was shattered. The entire thing was useless and it was the weekend. Every night they were going to be singing in a different state, now with no stand for the guitars they go through in one night. It was a nightmare. When I called Amazon, they couldn't help me. Gator Cases was closed on the weekend, and I never heard a thing from them, which was odd, as this mess affected a major rock band. I wound up having to be super resourceful myself, with the help of a local music store for the next town they were going to be in. Amazon gave me no help. Gator Cases gave me -no help. Less than minus no help since they never called me.

Works very well. Holds my guitars securely in place and they do not bang in to each other.

This is a very well built guitar stand case that will make it through the roadshows and gigs without breaking apart.I got this for my son. He doesn’t really tour or anything like that but will get together with his band mates to jam so I figured this would come in handy over his Pyle multi guitar stand which holds 5 guitars.That one is not as sturdy and is foldable made of tube and no slip rubber padding.The Gator Case looks really nice. Almost like a foot pedal case.My son said he doesn’t need it but I think once he uses it he will see the benefits both from a practical and aesthetic standpoint and leave the other stand behind.The only issues he had with this was that it hold 4 guitars. But it’s not like he’s going to take all his guitars with him anyway.I think if you have some nice six slings, then might as well make the investment to compliment them with this attention getter.The carpeting and elastic band are nicely done. And the stainless metal used is very nicely crafted.It has both utility, form and function.I’ll update with some pics when he puts his guitars in it. I personally like it and like and recommend it at the price. It’s a bit expensive but if you’re putting a $1,200 Fender or Gibson or whatever in there, it’s well worth it. Just my 2c.

Well made and very well built,

Le produit est arrivé complètement brisé. C’est le cas pour beaucoup. Utilisable mais cassé. Pour le prix c’est décevant.
