ABSTRACT:
The present invention is used in conjunction with a musical instrument having a bell including a tapered inner surface, an upper end and a lower end. The stand includes a round disc having upper and lower surfaces, and a side surface formed from an elastomeric material. The side surface gradually tapers inward between the lower and upper surfaces of the disc. The diameter of the lower surface of the disc is slightly greater than the diameter of the inner surface of the lower portion of the bell of the musical instrument. The dimensions of the disc and the inclination of the side surface of the disc cause the disc to exert a frictional locking force between the side surface of the disc and the bell of the musical instrument to maintain the musical instrument in a fixed position with respect to the disc. A base is coupled to the disc and maintains the disc in a level position.
