From Our Research Team:

Stylish Stand Supports Up to 2 Keyboards!

Ultimate Support's APEX AX-48 Pro keyboard stand adds new style and streamlined functionality to the classic column-style keyboard stand design. The APEX AX-48 Pro's specially designed end caps feature piano hinges and flip up to provide storage for its tri-bar arms during transport. Likewise, the legs of the 3-legged AX-48 Pro store inside the column. For even more convenience, there are cable channels to keep your keyboard cords tucked away during use. Finally, a stand that has you, the performer, in mind!

With an APEX AX-48 Pro, you'll definitely be able to avoid the cluttered look of typical stands and step out into the spotlight — where you belong. And with support for two keyboards, right out of the box (up to 125 lbs. each, even!) plus all of the clever design enhancements to ease your setup, the APEX AX-48 is more than just really stylish, it's practical too. Treat you and your keyboards to a rugged, reliable, convenient, and flat-out great-looking stand for your onstage performances: choose the Ultimate Support APEX AX-48 Pro.

Setup and tear down takes seconds! The AX-48 Pro breaks down into a single, slender unit that's easy to transport and doesn't take up hardly any room because the hollow column becomes its own carrying case! The legs remain connected and slide into and out of the base of the column, and the arms that support your keyboards are stored in compartments at the top of the column.

I will certainly make more purchases from Sweetwater again. If you have the product I need, I will purchase it from Sweetwater. The service is exceptional.

Solid

Great Stand. Using a yamaha S70XS on the bottom which is heavy. I recommend the mic adapter as well.

A classic stylish stand

The Apex is a classic and stylish keyboard stand. I bought the very first model over 20 years ago and other than a slight rounded profile instead of the older triangular shape and longer arms on the b... read more [+]ottom it's pretty much the same. Very solidly built, stable and easy to transport. I loved it so much I bought a new one to replace the one I sold 15 years ago! close [-]

Cool Stand

Taking some use to get used to. Love the low profile of it. It can get shaky if you play hard (ie: blues piano, boogie, etc). Also, the brace has a tendency to become uneven as you play.

Enjoying it as a two tier keyboard stand. close [-]

Looks great, but that is all.

The AX-48 Pro is the most stylish keyboard stand on the market by far. It will accommodate a number of tiers and a great deal of height adjustment, accessories, etc.

Unfortunately these ar... read more [+]e its only positive qualities. At first glance it appears incredibly solid, but is little more stable than any $40 stand. The 'keyboard stabilizer' on mine doesn't even reach the floor. The tiers tilt back at a weird angle which makes the controls on some gear very hard to see. You cannot adjust the width of the tiers, so forget about mounting your drum machine or desktop synth. At first I thought I'd set it up incorrectly but further inspection reveals no error on my part, although it's difficult to tell because there is almost no contrast in the user manual illustrations. You would never want to gig with it - why drag along a stand as heavy as this when any decent x-stand would do?

If style is your only concern, go with this. close [-]

Great Look but just mediocre

by Kasha from IN

Music Background: semi-professional keyboardist
I guess this stand appealled to me in many ways, not just for the professional look on stage but for the ease of use with 2 keyboards, versus a folding stand. I'm not as happy with it as I expected I... read more [+] would be, after over a full year of regular use. The first thing that happened with this stand was one of the tri-bars broke off on the end one day. The second thing I dislike is that the top cap never stays shut when you turn the stand upside down to close the bottom legs. I guess I should start pulling the tri-bars out and then placing them to the side instead of in the top cap until I close the legs on the bottom of the stand. The third thing I dislike is that the little plastic "stabilizer" on the bottom of this stand broke after about 11 months. Since then, I just decided this stand is really not as great as I imagined it would be. Ultimate Support did work with me and send me a new tri-bar and a new top cap. The new bar hasn't broken and I've also bought an extra pair of tri-bars in case they are needed, which I have to keep elsewhere (in my crappy bag I bought for it). But the top cap they sent me does the same thing the first one did....falls open all the time. It falls open in transit, in the bag, and it falls open everytime you flip it over w/tri-bars in it. So I guess I just can't win with this stand. Glad I didn't buy the newer model stand and spend extra money to just be disappointed some more. close [-]
