Questions & Answers

How do you make it so that when you put your trumpet on it, it doesn't slide down?

the bell made of plastic The tension screw is held in place by a support disc that is placed on top of the wider portion. Adjust the height of the support shaft, then slide the disc down to rest on the wider part of the screw, and you should be fine.

How do you make it so that when you put your trumpet on it, it doesn't slide down?

The knob on the side can be tightened or loosened, and once tightened, it stays put. I had no problems using this during the summer of last year. I'm a member of the Bluecoats Drum and Bugle Corps' Alumni Project. Bugle Corps is a unit of the United States Army. Rhythm In Blue is a blues song. Last year, I put on about eight shows and had a lot of rehearsals. This stand has never scratched me, and I absolutely adore it! It's of excellent quality, and it's a bargain! Once it's in place, the collar is firm.

I'm stumped as to how to attach the circular cushion. ?

The circular cushion can be slid onto the post after twisting the rubber top off.

What is the maximum height of the bell holder that can be adjusted?

This is no longer a stand that I would recommend. My trumpet bell was dented because the plastic tip was not the same as the old rubber tip. This is a position that I strongly oppose. I'd recommend a Hercules bell because it has rubber tips that go over your bell.

Selected User Reviews For Hamilton KB500 Classic Trumpet Stand, Chrome Finish

It's all about the old school

5/5

For over 30 years, I used a pair for my trumpet and flugelhorn. I left them behind at a gig a few months ago by accident. When I saw that they were still being produced, I was skeptical that they would be of the same high quality as the previous versions. I'm happy to report that these are just as good as the ones I had previously, being well-made and stable. Anything else is a waste of money!.

The Trumpet Stand is a long-lasting piece of equipment

5/5

Since I bought it, I've only used it once, but it was a huge success. It was sturdy and looked great on the stage or platform. It's interesting because the most recent one I purchased was in 1971 for $5. What a rise in prices.

Extremely tough and steady

5/5

I spent a quarter-century as a music director. For my trumpet, I prefer to use this stand. When it comes to expensive instruments, you need to be sure that your stand will hold up, and this one does. You're going to like it.

This item is extremely durable

5/5

A well-made and extremely sturdy trumpet stand that will protect your priceless instrument is well worth the money. It's a little heavy, which is actually a good thing. I would strongly suggest it.

This one differs from the originals in a number of ways

5/5

This is a fantastic stand. Over the past 30 years, I've had several. This one differs from the originals in a number of ways. It's not quite as heavy, and the legs have a silly screw on them. It's as if once it's open, it'll collapse. That will not be the case. The screw, however, can be removed. The pad on which the bell rests isn't as sturdy as the originals, but it'll suffice. This is still the most effective stand.

The trumpet stand by Hamilton is fantastic! It's possible to use it while standing or sitting

5/5

It's sturdy and won't topple over as long as you're not in the middle of a brawl.

The best trumpet stand ever made is still in use today

5/5

The best trumpet stand in the world is still available. The legs on this Hamilton stand are a little wider than the ones on my other Hamilton stands. The only place I'll put my trumpets is on this stand.
