Stand for mounting a banjo on live...

howdee,

just wondering where I could source a stand for putting a banjo on while playing live. So I would go between a guitar and a banjo, but would need to be quick about it.

Now , I know a banjo is pretty heavy , so is there something specific?

Say, I would step up to the banjo, play the lick, then go straight to the guitar...

I think something like this is what I'm looking for, but would it support a banjo though?

What about something like this

Its for a classical guitar, but might be adjustable for a banjo?

I just use something like this:

I'm not keen on hanging them by the neck becasue of the weight, plus that type os sand is dead handy because it just folds flat for transport.

hi banjo paul,

I don't need a stand like that, it's something I can use to play the banjo, but not have to quickly take it off and put a guitar on in the same song.

james hetfield used to use one live for the "unforgiven" and go from the nylon string, on a mount, straight to the electric riff...
