This is a HERCULES alto saxophone instrument stand that can be folded and stored in the instrument's bell. I purchased it new about 2 years ago. I used it regularly for about 2 years after that, and it can still be used without any noticeable scratches, dirt, or malfunctions. Please understand that there is some sign of use. I would appreciate it if you could check the images. I will ship it in the original box from when it was purchased new.
