Artie Owl Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Good day, gentlemen. I'm pleased to announce my confirmed order of an Atlas Stand for my Blues Jr after seeing some other members whom I respect get them and love them I decided that's all the proof I needed. Don't know when it'll be finished and make it's way up to me, but I bet it'll be here before my damn Epi Nighthawk! HA! Cheers, and thanks again to Josh, he takes his business seriously and has a definite passion for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffster Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Cool, post some pics when you get it. Is it custom? P.S. give up on the Epi, it is jinxed by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand Josh is going to put a personal touch on it yes, and as for the Epi; good things come to those who wait! Thanks for the feedback though Stiffhand, I will post some sweet pics with me, my SG, my Blues Jr and my new stand as soon as I get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artie Owl Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 i just use a chair That's cool too, but I'm a big fan of custom work and quality stuff that will last a long time, and I expect to have this stand as a functional stand and piece of furniture and as a unique talking point item for decades to come.

Guest Farnsbarns Wunterslausche Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Lots of these stand thread lately. So, here goes, I'll ask the stupid question. There is clearly an advantage to these stands but for the life of me I can't work it out. Someone help me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigKahune Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 . Farns - Two things for me - The speaker/s is off the floor and angled up - better sound. And the controls are usually closer to you - great for us older guys. B) And congrats to you Artie - Can't wait to see your review/pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffster Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 A lot of sound frequencies can be muffled when an amp is sitting on carpet for instance, I have all my amps on a plank of wood in my room, also sound projection is important. I also have a standard stand for my Super Champ and it works really well, keeps the amp at an ideal height, especially to tweak the front knobs.

Artie Owl Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 Do Gibson Forum members get a discount?..... You'd have to talk to Josh on that one, but he's a great guy to deal with, give him a hollar (and or forum private message) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had a Marshall stack for so long I barely remember having amp controls 4 feet below my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Farnsbarns Wunterslausche Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Touché Wasn't meant to be a touche (can't do an accent on my phone). I was being stupid and missed the obvious. I'm getting a FBJ soon so a stand will be a consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm getting a FBJ soon so a stand will be a consideration. I knew it wasn't and I knew you were missing the point, but The notion of not needing a stand because you have a Marshall stack souded very Rock n' Roll to me.

Artie Owl Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 Yeah it's going to be right at home with my gear, I'm trying to think of some places I can take some sweet pictures when I get it.
