Instrument That Looks Like A Skinny Cello

I originally bought this to mic a cello as the available pickups were unsatisfactory. After a makeshift adaptation of the instrument clip we were getting a nice, rich, warm, full tone right away without even touching the EQ. We've been using this for frequent gigs--weddings, parties etc.--for about 4 or 5 years now and it's still working perfectly. This unit has served us so well at such a great price, I just bought 3 more from B&H to mic the string section of the jazz orchestra.

I bought this stand for my Luis & Clark carbon fiber cello. It is extremely well made, yet small and thus easy to carry when folded up. While it holds a regular cello well - a student uses it - it also fits my instrument well. The silicone rubber coating is thick and protects the instrument while providing plenty of friction to hold the instrument in place. Of course, the width can be adjusted to fit other instruments. I am very picky and couldn't be happier with this purchase. Additionally the price is incredible for the value you are getting. Last point: some stands come with a bow holder, but thus are not very portable. I have never had trouble finding space to hang or place a bow.

This is amazingly well built.  Looks and acts like its an expensive scientific instrument.

Lightweight and skinny cable.

So easy to operate with the instrument panel. Prints perfectly! Looks very professional - it’s for home use.

I was concerned at first after ordering the 'Skinny' harness over the original as all I would ever see is other photographers wearing the original. It looked great and secure and I couldn't really picture what the skinny version would look like compared to the thicker strap. But as a guy with a smaller frame and only being 5'7 - the 'Skinny' version was perfect! I now realize if I would have got the original - the straps may have been too thick for my shoulders. The 'skinny' version held both my Canon R6 with Speedlight and Rode VideoMic Pro on both sides. Felt comfortable and secure and didn't cause any chaffing or pain whilst wearing them for 3 days of consecutive 18 hour shoots!

* Using for vocal recordings * Like that Hi Z instrument jacks are on front * Inserts for compressor and/or EQ are great * The huge variety of digital output options at this price are unmatched * Very clean sound * It does take some experimentation to get a good output level on it, but I got it * User Manual could be better, but at least it has one!

Like all K&M stands, this properly supports the instrument, is built out of durable materials, and folds up to a compact size. K&M makes the best stands for woodwinds on the market-I use them exclusively.

Can also be use for a knee support if you have skinny legs.

Awesome Board!! Looks Great!!!Like always Asus is great
