Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Stand is Wobbly:
  • Ensure all assembly screws are fully tightened.
  • Adjust the 4 leveling feet at the bottom of the stand to compensate for uneven floor surfaces.

• Instruments Not Fitting Properly:
  • Adjust the position of the 5 main guitar support holders along the horizontal bar to create appropriate spacing for your instruments.

• Sticky Residue on Rubber Parts:
  • Some users have reported a sticky residue from packaging on the U-shaped rubber parts. This can often be carefully removed with a fingernail or a soft cloth and mild soap.
