Of course they are not the best guitar stands you can have. But, they do the job. They are not tall stands, the top end of the stand is half way or two thirds of the guitar length, depending on the guitar. And the fitting at the top doesn't quite stay locked. But, if you want this stand to store your guitar, or leave it there in a recording or band practice situation, they are OK. I wouldn't use this stand in a playing live situation, would prefer something more solid, stable and safe. That fits the guitar at the top of the neck, with a strap that locks well.
