Manhasset Symphony music stand

Introducing the Manhasset Symphony music stand

Manhasset's Symphony stands are immensely popular with orchestras and bands for permanent use in concert venues and school halls, as well as with individuals wanting a sturdy stand for home use. Whether a music student or a professional musician, Manhasset stands are an ideal choice for making your practise and performance as easy as possible.

Inventor and musician Otto Lagervall founded the Manhasset Specialty Company with a desire to overcome the inherent shortcomings of music stands available at the time. His desire to use the highest quality materials and workmanship carries through the company ethos to the present day, though the company moved from Manhasset, New York to Yakima, Washington in the early 1940s where it remains today.

Lifetime guarantee

Each stand is extremely robust and built to such a high quality that we offer a lifetime guarantee with any purchase. With a Manhasset stand, you should never have to buy another stand again.

Easy height adjustment

The main feature of these - and indeed all - Manhasset stands is that they are knob free. Thanks to the famous ‘magic finger’ shaft clutch and ‘friction tilt’ neck joint, the stand can be pushed or pulled into any position and will remain secure without turning a single screw. Not only does the lack of adjusters make it simpler to use, but the overall design also looks much more sleek and classy.

Super strong

All of the Manhasset 48 stands can hold 4kg of music (up to 34kg if you purchase the MAN2400 music stand lock too) and have a desk depth of 2.25" (5.7cm) making them capable of holding heavy choir books and large music anthologies. The desks are made from solid aluminium for optimum rigidity and the all-steel welded bases allow for extra stability.

Manageable on the road

While these stands are designed to live in one space and are therefore not entirely fold-able, they are surprisingly lightweight (3.63kg) and easy to carry around if necessary. The desks can fold all of the way back reducing the total stand height to 90cm - easily small enough to pop into a car boot.

The Manhasset Lifetime Warranty

Over the years, Manhasset has continued to research, develop, and innovate new products to meet the needs of musicians, and their commitment to consistent quality has made them the number one choice of many schools, bands and orchestras worldwide. Backing this up, Manhasset offer a guaranteed lifetime warranty on all products purchased from us. They have the utmost confidence in their manufacturing standards, substantiated by years of proof. When you buy a Manhasset music stand, you should never have to buy another stand again.
