Gear Watch: The Uni-Stand

Bassist Reginald Means has created a product to help alleviate amp-tilting woes: the uni-stand. Means wanted to develop a device to let bassists easily position their amplifiers to best monitor their sound. He is a machine tool technology instructor and brought his vision to life. After years of prototyping it is now available.

“I got tired of bending over and needed something to hold my amplifier in place,” Means said. “Since I am a machine tool technology instructor, I wanted the product to look good. It would have been embarrassing for me to stick a brick under the amplifier.”

The uni-stand has 4 different positions to accommodate different amplifier sizes and tilting preferences.
