The Pro-G Birch is a robust version of the original US-patented guitar stand, designed to fold up and fit inside a guitar case or gig bag. Made from 13 alternating layers of birch, it is designed to securely support one stringed instrument at a time. It is suitable for travel, stage, presentations, studio, home and display use.
The stand supports acoustic guitars up to 12.7 cm thick and electric or bass guitars up to 5.7 cm thick. It is also suitable for ukuleles, mandolins, autoharps, chromaharps and other stringed instruments.

Proper Opening and Folding
Opening the hinge first or closing it last creates tension in the wooden parts, which can cause them to break.
- Opening: First unfold the back legs and vertical supports. Open the hinge last.
- Folding: Close the hinge first. Then fold in the vertical supports and back legs.
Instruments with Nitrocellulose Lacquer Finishes
The Cooperstand is compatible with nitrocellulose lacquer finishes. However, depending on environmental conditions, this lacquer can take approximately one year to cure fully and may remain semi-soft for an extended period. If a new instrument is displayed on a stand for a long time, the contact surfaces may leave marks or indentations in the finish.
