Abstract
A combination guitar and amplifier stand has the ability to hold two guitars and a single 1×12 or 2×12 combination solid state or tube amplifier. The stand has been designed to hold a single piece of equipment without tipping over. The guitar holders allow the user to place their guitars in the holders when not in use. The bottom of the guitar's headstock will rest in the padded holders and the body of the guitar will rest against a padded bar located on the right and left hand side of the rack near the bottom. The amplifier is placed in the rack, located in the middle of the stand and the rack can be adjusted so that the amplifier rack can rest at either a 0° or a 45° angle.

A musical equipment holding assembly for use with a first headstock guitar, a second headstock guitar and an amplifier defining a speaker side, top and bottom sides, and first and second lateral sides, the assembly comprising:
- a frame comprising a first frame member and a second frame member;
- said first frame member comprising a first triangular-shaped base comprising a first apex extending in a first plane, and a first upstanding member extending within said first plane from said first apex,
- said second frame member comprising a second triangular-shaped base comprising a second apex extending in a second plane parallel to the first plane, and a second upstanding member extending within said second plane from said second apex;
- a first guitar holding hardware set connected to said first frame member;
- a second guitar holding hardware set connected to said second frame member;
- and
- an amplifier holding hardware set;
- wherein:
- the first guitar holding hardware set comprises a first headstock support member and a first bottom support member;
- the first guitar holding hardware set is sized, shaped, structured and/or located to support the first guitar in a generally upright position;
- the second guitar holding hardware set comprises a second headstock support member and a second bottom support member;
- the second guitar holding hardware set is sized, shaped, structured and/or located to support the second guitar in a generally upright position;
- the amplifier holding hardware set is sized, shaped, structured and/or located to support the amplifier so that it can be rotated, relative to the frame, between at least a first position and a second position;
- and
- the first guitar holding hardware set and the amplifier holding hardware set are each connected to the frame so that when an amplifier is present in the amplifier supporting software:
- the first guitar holding set is located on the first lateral side of the amplifier.
A reconfigurable musical equipment holding system for use with a first headstock guitar, a second headstock guitar and an amplifier defining a speaker side, top and bottom sides, and first and second lateral sides, the assembly comprising:
- a frame comprising a first frame member and a second frame member;
- said first frame member comprising a first triangular-shaped base comprising a first apex extending in a first plane, and a first upstanding member extending within said first plane from said first apex,
- said second frame member comprising a second triangular-shaped base comprising a second apex extending in a second plane parallel to the first plane, and a second upstanding member extending within said second plane from said second apex;
- a first guitar holding hardware set connected to said first frame member;
- a second guitar holding hardware set connected to said second frame member;
- and
- an first accessory support assembly;
- wherein:
- the system is reconfigurable between at least a first configuration and a second configuration;
- the first headstock support assembly comprises a first headstock support member and a first connection hardware set;
- the second headstock support assembly comprises a second headstock support member and a second connection hardware set;
- the first accessory support assembly comprises an accessory support member and a third connection hardware set;
- the first headstock support member is sized, shaped and/or structured to support a guitar headstock against forces of gravity on the first lateral side of the amplifier;
- the second headstock support member is sized, shaped and/or structured to support a guitar headstock against forces of gravity;
- the first accessory support member is sized, shaped and/or structured to support a musical accessory of a first type against forces of gravity;
- in the first configuration, the first connection hardware set detachably mechanically connects the first headstock support assembly to the first upstanding member;
- in the first configuration, the second connection hardware set detachably mechanically connects the second headstock support assembly to the second upstanding member;
- and
- in the second configuration, the third connection hardware set detachably mechanically connects the first accessory support assembly to the first upstanding member.
