Great update to an already great stand.  I already own two different Ultimate guitar stands, including an earlier version of this stand.  All have been rock-solid and very dependable.  I have used them in travel all over the world, and the way they fold up makes them very easy to pack and take along.  Love the re-design of the headstock cradle.  Holds my P-bass very well, acoustic well, etc.  I never worry about the stand getting knocked over, or the stand damaging my guitar finish.  Best stands there are, in my opinion.
