Is it good for electric guitar also? Can it destroy its finish?

Electrics should fit fine. I always keep an electric and an acoustic on these stands and there is no damage. Keep polish on your guitar though, I always do.

Yes, it will work for electric guitar. The contact points are rubber so it will not destroy the finish.

I'm sure you can use it for an electric guitar. The braces on the bottom are wide for an acoustics.It hasn't ruined my guitar. If you have a really high end guitar I would spend some more money on a stand.

I know there is a lot of talk about certain materials affecting the finish of your instrument and I'm not sure if this stand has the kind of material that is said to be questionable but I can tell you that I have had one of my guitars sitting in this stand continuously for probably almost a year and it has had no damaging effect on the finish, despite the fact that I rarely put it back in its case, so it is always in the stand.

I think that's somewhat deceptive--it must contain a very fine powdery abrasive. I use it on the metal parts of a musical instrument--it works beautifully!

I use it as a permanent stand for all my electrics. I ordered the same style acoustic stands from hercules as well. I've never had any issues and I prefer that it doesn't keep pressure on the headstock and neck like traditional stands

I have had mine for over a year now with no problems. I just buffed out a custom made guitar with it using 12" buffers with no problems

These things are not for people serious about their music. It will not stick to your instrument because I have tried it on my four guitars and mandolin. all instruments with smooth glossy finishes and they fall off quickly. I also tried it on other instruments owned by my friends. I would advise you to pay a little more and get something that will work for you.

I've used this for music projects. Though I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for good quality, here is a sample of how it sounds with guitar:https://soundcloud.com/benedicttoast/dinkleberg

I use mine for electronics. You can't solder stainess or steel. It would have to be made out of brass or copper. A better idea would be the gun type soldering iron or something bigger than this one. I think I would call someplace like Guitar Center and ask what they use.

I've used this stand for my Gibson Les Paul Standard for about a year now. No chemical interaction with the finish at all. I don't store the guitar on the stand, mind you. Couple hours a day at most. I would say with confidence your bass will be safe.

I didn't notice any damage to my guitar, I think the rubber layer is safe. but u must know that I don't remove it a lot from my guitar.

I've heard that as well. I typically only put it on my guitar while I intend to be playing the guitar. When I'm finished and I hang it up, I take the tuner off just in case. So far, I've had no problems. Also, the part that clips to the guitar has a soft padding, so I don't know why it would take off any finish. It hasn't hurt the finish on my guitar so far. (I have a black gloss colored BC Rich Rave II.)

For me It's great on my electric, I have to adjust it a little for my acoustic but my acoustics action is awful. Still works fine.

I'm not sure because I have not used it with the guitar yet. But it works for what I need to get done. Sorry if I couldn't quite answer your question. May be you can go to a blog or another review with this question on this product

no problem on classical guitars, just check the labels to use the appropriate cleaner based on your guitar finish

I would think so. I use mine for building custom electric guitars. Best for small tight spaces.

I don't know. I took the strings off and used it for a decorative piece of art. I glued jewelry all over the guitar, and it turned out beautiful. But it seems like it would be an OK guiitar for a beginner.

Hey Sam, although I am not specifically qualified to give you a definite yes or no answer to this question, I will state my opinion. After using these products extensively for a few years, I personally would not recommend using the polish on your fret board. I do highly recommend the Dunlop 65 'Lemon Oil' for your fret board though. I use the polish on my guitar body, neck and headstock. It shines up beautiful and after a few fingerprints and smudges you can just wipe it clean again with a cloth and it shines right back up like new. I use the lemon oil on the fretboard (and the bridge, just to make it shine). The lemon oil keeps the fretboard wood nicely moisturized and slick for all your needs.

You don't have to use it for polishing, use it after playing to remove smudges, etc. I guess it won't hurt strings
