A stand adjustment device has a tripod-connecting member, a connecting seat, a distal clamping plate, a boom-connecting tube, a locking shaft, and a manual operating member. The connecting seat is rotatably located around the tripod-connecting member. The distal clamping plate is detachably attached to a side of the connecting seat. One end of the locking shaft is movably disposed in the boom-connecting tube. The boom is slidably mounted through the boom-connecting tube and the locking shaft. The locking shaft is slidably mounted through the boom-connecting tube, the distal clamping plate, and the connecting seat such that the boom-connecting tube is rotatable relative to the connecting seat. The manual operating member and the locking shaft are configured to clamp the boom-connecting tube, the distal clamping plate, and the connecting seat therebetween into a locked condition.

A holder includes a body defining two prongs joined with each other at proximal ends thereof, each prong from two prongs has a distal end. The holder defines a hollow interior defined by the two prongs and an opening between distal ends, the opening being in an open communication with the hollow interior. A pivot is provided on a distal end of one prong from the two prongs. A protrusion is provided on a distal end of another prong from the two prongs. A rigid retainer may be provided in a pivot connection at the pivot and in a detachable connection at the protrusion. The holder may be designed with a pivot to independently pivot about a mounting member in each of a vertical and a horizontal plane.

A modular mounting system may include multiple parts couplable together to form a customizable assembly of parts. The parts may have a variety of lengths, depths, and heights and a rectangular prism shape or a rectangular wedge shape. A first part may have a first set of coupling holes on a first side surface for aligning with a second set of coupling holes on a second side surface of a second part. The first part may have a first cable routing opening for aligning with a second cable routing opening of the second part. The second part may couple to the first part at a front position and a third part may couple to the first part in a rear position and adjacent to the second part. Additional parts (e.g., a fourth part, a fifth part, etc.) may couple to the first part, the second part, and/or the third part.

The present disclosure relates to outdoor musical instruments configured to replicate the appearance of a mushroom and to withstand prolonged exposure to the environment. The musical instrument is made up of at least a metal dish mounted to a weather-resistant support post. The metal dish is mounted to the top of the support post, and the bottom surface of the metal dish is separated from the top end of the support post by a non-metal isolator. The musical instrument is configured to produce a note that sustains when the top surface of the metal dish is struck by a mallet.

Musical instrument support apparatuses can enable a performer to play an instrument in the standing position without supporting the instrument with a strap and without dampening vibrations from the instrument. In one example, a musical instrument support assembly includes a base to couple with a stand, two support arms including a first support arm coupled with a first end of the base with a first fastener, and a second support arm coupled with a second end of the base with a second fastener, and at least one support element coupled with each of the two support arms to support a musical instrument. At least one support element coupled with each of the two support arms includes an instrument securing element to contact and secure the musical instrument to the base.

It has been very difficult for women with long hair to wear existing neck straps for saxophones. To address this, straps for saxophones and wind instruments are configured to be worn on one shoulder rather than the neck, and thus wind-instrument players of all mankind can use them conveniently. In order to wear the strap for a saxophone on one shoulder, materials for supporting the saxophone strap include strong supports (A, B, C, D, E, F). In addition, the supports adjust angles (11, 12, 13, 14, 15) and lengths (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) to be suitable for the body. In addition, at parts where the supports come into contact with the abdomen and back, pedestals (23, 22) hold the supports. Also, a string having a ring (G)for hanging the saxophone is connected to the supports. The above components are firmly coupled to one another to form the one-shoulder strap for a saxophone.

The XILO Cube is a percussion instrument based on the classic Euclidean (hexahedronic) open-sided cube. Manufactured of lightweight metal, each edge/side of the cube contains a different note and/or tone giving it 24 (twenty-four) playing surfaces. All edges are spot-welded.
