rainbird Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 This was posted on a local gear swap/sale FB page today. I asked what brand it is, and have received no reply. This seems more adjustable than most, and I've never seen anything quite like it. I am currently not in the market for a stand, but wondering what in the heck this is!

o0Ampy0o Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Proel KK20? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old No7 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Interesting design and features. Reverb is listing a 3-tier version -- used in good condition (no, not mine...) for < $125 -- too bad it's in the UK though!

miden Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Correct it is a proel unit and they were shite...VERY bouncy, heavy and awkward to cart around. The tube metal (the square tube that the arms attach to) is quite soft and dents easily and shows ugly marks where the screws tighten against it. I've still got the one (dual arms) I bought years, probably near 2 decades ago, still leaning against the wall in the shed! My view? it could probably stay exactly where it is hahaha! 1 Quote There is no luck - luck is simply the confluence of circumstance and co-incidence...

AUSSIEKEYS Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 I had something similar here in Aussie 20 or so years ago. But cant be sure... but i did see a photo of it the other day on my computer vy coincidence. I feel it was Proel? Ill see if i can find it but it was 3 tier. The idea appealed to me but the keyboards always looked skewiff as all the parts were welded slightly skewiff. Nothing sat square. Not saying this is the same. But it so reminds me of it.

stoken6 Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Proel kk20 is correct. I had one and it looked good on paper, but heavy and prone to wobble. Not a left-to-right sway, but a yawing rotation around the central column. i sold mine after a few years of not being used.

AnotherScott Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 They apparently also make longer arms for it... Quote Maybe this is the best place for a shameless plug!

MathOfInsects Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Just from a physics standpoint, I wouldn't put a pencil on that thing if I cared about the pencil. Have you ever bumped into a lighting tripod? This looks like that, without the inconvenience of the thing you're breaking being less that $2k to replace. What a wobbly, top-heavy nightmare that thing's got to be. Quote Now out!

AnotherScott Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Funny that you put it that way, Sam, because when I saw the ones with the long arms, I thought, "Danger Will Robinson!" 1 Quote Maybe this is the best place for a shameless plug!

CowboyNQ Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 It looks like the sort of thing that would silently move into your bedroom at night and just stand there, contemplating your oblivious and unconscious form while plotting its next move.
