For Mandolin StandPhotos do not do the final product justice - the stand is much better in person! This is the 3rd stand I've purchased - Each stand is a piece of art, with incredible quality.
Scott Woods
For Banjo StandThis stand is truly a thing of beauty. Scott was great to work with. I told him early on I had an upcoming trip, and concerns that it would not arrive before I left. He got it to me way ahead of time. The workmanship is awesome! My Stelling is really enjoying its new companion.

For Pricing on 2 wall guitar standsScott's creations are as every bit beautiful and stunning as the musical instruments they hold. I now have 2 of his wall stands, and one floor stand. They are expertly crafted using the finest woods. These are the best instrument stands on the market, hands down! Thanks, Scott!

For Banjo StandThis is the fourth of four stands I have ordered from South Mountain. My two previous two banjo stands are from the same maker, and I just received this additional banjo stand and a guitar stand. I knew the design that worked for my banjos would make sense for a valuable classic guitar. Aside from the quality of workmanship and materials, the stands are aesthetically pleasing, protect the finish on my instruments, and work on shelves when I am not playing and as floor stands on which to rest instruments when I put them down during practice. I highly recommend South Mountain Woodworks.

For Banjo StandFirst, let me say most emphatically that this stand is a well-crafted piece of art. A piece of very functional art. I got it to hold and display a recently acquired Huber banjo and they make a most fitting pair. The aesthetics of the design, the materials and finish are outstanding. Working with Scott was equal perfection. His responses were timely, his delivered product was as described and arrived as promised. I couldn't be more pleased. Simply magnificent!

For Walnut/Curly Maple Model 1 Guitar Stand W/DrawerThe guitar stand received was really a work of art. Scott worked with me to customize a design. I will be giving this as a wedding present and I couldn't be happier.

For Banjo StandI had looked online, among other sources, for ages seeking an exceptional Banjo stand for my Huber Banjo. I really love the looks and quality of this stand. I am contemplating purchasing another banjo and if I do, I will definitely be purchasing an additional stand. The workmanship is artwork in itself.
