Jaspers Holders 30B

I think all the Jaspers stands already come with these holders, so their function should be no mystery.

My only gripe is the little hooks on the end - they are generally fine, but not quite long enough for certain keyboards. For example, the Akai AX60 has an angled lower chassis, so the hooks do not quite come up high enough to hold the keyboard in place. I own a few other vintage keyboards with a similar slope on the bottom, but I haven't tried them yet. I think the Korg DW series and Poly-800 may have similar trouble.

I was able to correct this by replacing the hooks with 1/4 x 3/4 inch aluminum bar stock. I cut the bar to about 65 mm in length, then drilled and countersunk a hole for the screw, and finally spray painted the pieces black. It was a lot of work, but it fixed the problem.

I'm rating these holders 5 stars for stability and quality, but only 4 total because they are not suitable for all keyboards, and Jaspers does not offer longer hooks for the end of the holders.

My Jaspers Holder 30B arrived quickly from Thomann. The extra holders are pretty easy to install especially if you've already put together a Jaspers keyboard stand in the past. These things are a great way to expand your Jaspers Keyboard stands. I had a lot of leftover space on my stands and with these holders I was able to add extra mono synths and drum machines to that unused space. The holders also give you good flexibility with the different angles you can tilt your equipment. My only gripe is for what they are I think they are overpriced and if your buying a few the cost adds up to nearly as much as a full Jaspers keyboard stand itself, but its Jaspers not Thomann that price them that high. Overall apart from the cost these holders really do make good use of that precious studio real estate!
