Storing and effortlessly moving guitars is no longer a problem, thanks to the introduction of the new Guitar Mobile Storage Rack from Black Cat Music.
Another product from the well-respected Wenger Corporation, the Guitar Mobile Storage Rack lives up to the company’s high quality reputation for protection of prized musical instruments. Designed to pass through standard door openings thanks to hard rubber swivel castors even a fully loaded rack can be manoeuvered smoothly and quietly around the facility. Adjustable padded supports provide both a secure fit and protection for instruments, storing up to 20 electric or acoustic uncased guitars. The supporting yokes can be removed for alternatively storing guitars in their cases. The solid wood Guitar Mobile Storage Rack constructed using timber from renewable resources is offered in a choice of natural or cherry finish and comes with a 5-year warranty.

A sparkling promotion this month from Black Cat Music is a 15% saving on the Duet 2 music stand light, which makes this a good time to upgrade music stand lighting.
Utilising two fully adjustable LED head units, the Duet 2 can evenly light two pages of music thanks to optical grade lenses that avoid any hot spots. The new Duet 2 is twice as bright as earlier models and offers four selectable light levels. Sensor switch operation allows, one, or both LEDs to be turned on with just a gentle tap. An extra strong clip attaches the Duet 2 to any music stand and with two flexible arms, the lighting heads can be fully adjusted as required, or bent to a compact position for ease of storage.
Three AAA size batteries offer up to 20 hours continuous operation. Alternatively an optional AC adaptor additionally allows a series of Duet 2 units to be connected together for lighting control for band or orchestral users. Details and order information are published on the web site.

Why not start the new academic year with new music stands and a smart move and store cart that holds 10 stands? As a special promotion, 10 x Classic 50 Music Stands plus a small size Move & Store Cart are offered by Black Cat Music with a saving of £100 compared to the usual package price.
The package, normally priced at £695, is on offer throughout September at just £595 plus VAT with free delivery on the UK mainland. Schools and colleges looking to equip with new music stands designed for robust and regular handling can take advantage of the deal ready for the new academic year.
Already a top seller, the popular Classic 50 Music Stand doesn’t compromise on a design that is tough enough to handle the hardships of regular classroom use thanks to a formula of advanced polymers offering inherent tensile strength that will not bend or dent like metal stands - a design that also makes it quiet and rattle-free during performances. And the scratch resistant desk surface also incorporates a unique recess for keeping pencils in place. When the performance, rehearsal or class is over, stands can be stacked on the easy to load Move & Store Cart for transport and convenient, compact storage.
