Help! I need an amp stand FAST!
I need to get an amp stand for a gig this weekend. Can anyone recommend a GOOD, SOLID stand that will get the amp off the ground and tilt it back? Folding would be cool. Not interested in milk crates at this time!

Quick-Lock BS-317 is great with my Blues Deluxe

Adjustable, foldable and reasonably strong.

I should have metioned, this would be for my Heritage Victory with the following dimensions: Width: 23.25" x Height: 20"x Depth: 11.25". The QuikLok looks great but it says it has a Depth range: 11.8 to 15 in... does that mean it won't work with the Victory?

My BD is about 10" deep 22" W and almost 18 tall, you should be fine.

With it leaning back, the weight of the speaker should keep it fairly sturdy.

Might take more than two tall boys to get that amp leaning right :-)

I'm using the Musicians Friend brand amp stand that is on sale for $19.95 with, if I remember correctly, only $5 shipping, with my Line 6 Spider III 75 watter. It does collapse for travel and the tilt back arms remove easily as well.
Price is right and MF is pretty good about getting things out quickly.
If you have a Guitar Center nearby you may find the same model there and not have to wait.

I use this one for my Carvin Belair.
I bought it through Carvin but I don't think they make it.

Very sturdy, adjustable, folds up.

Holds up to 100 lbs.
$30 +

The MF stand looks similar but the Carvin has the folding scissor braces that I think make it stronger.
