About the On-Stage CS7201 Cello/Bass Stand
The On-Stage CS7201 is a professional instrument stand engineered specifically to accommodate both cellos and double basses, providing secure storage and easy access for large string instruments in stage, studio, classroom, and home environments. Designed with a fully and independently adjustable lower yoke, this stand adapts to various instrument sizes, ensuring a precise fit whether supporting a three-quarter cello or a full-size double bass. The stand's robust construction features a black powder coat finish, delivering durability and professional aesthetics that complement any performance or storage setting.
Stability is a primary engineering focus of the CS7201, achieved through a wide, splayed tilt-back base design that spans 22.5 inches. This generous base spread provides exceptional weight balance, effectively preventing tipping or falling even when supporting heavier instruments up to the 60-pound weight capacity. Non-slip rubber feet further enhance stability by inhibiting unwanted base movement across various floor surfaces, from polished stage decks to carpeted studio floors. The stand's height adjusts from 28 inches to 52.5 inches measured from lower to upper yoke, accommodating musicians of different statures and varying instrument dimensions.
Instrument protection is integrated throughout the CS7201's design, with EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) padding at all contact points where the instrument rests against the stand. This soft yet durable material increases grip to hold instruments securely while protecting delicate finishes from scratches, dents, and other potential damage. For added convenience, a built-in rear hook provides handy, forget-free bow storage, ensuring the bow remains accessible and properly stored alongside the instrument. This thoughtful feature eliminates the common issue of misplacing or damaging bows between practice sessions or performances.
