Thursday, 25 September 2008

Hercules Stands are delighted to announce that the current European Champion, Cory, are to officially endorse Hercules music and instrument stands.

Hot on the heels of this deal, Hercules are tremendously excited to announce that the Chester Le Street Riverside Band, long established and with a tremendous history dating back to 1877, are also to endorse Hercules stands.

Meteoric rise

Hercules stands themselves are rather newer to the British market.

They were first launched in the UK in 2002 and the following years have seen a meteoric rise to the top of the market place for the brand. The first stands were aimed at the massive UK guitar market with orchestral stands only really being launched around two years ago.

The brand has made tremendous progress in the UK market in the last five years. With this development the sky would seem to be the limitMark Snelling

Tremendous progress

Mark Snelling, director for Strings and Things (the UK distributor for Hercules) told 4BR: "The brand has made tremendous progress in the UK market in the last five years. With this development the sky would seem to be the limit. It’s a fantastic opportunity for us and we are excited that our a new products have made such progress and gained such recognition in only a few years."

Fantastic design

The Hercules stands are strong, innovative and practical and they are perfect for hard working bands. Among the instrument stands are the lightweight ‘Travlight’ range, designed for mainly for portability and the ‘EZ-Safe’ range that is ideal for the band room or home use.

Music stands are represented by the ‘Quik N EZ’ system with a trigger mechanism and the unique ‘EZ Glide’ range that simply adjust to the required setting simply by raising or lowering the desk.
