YouTube Short HERCULES STANDS · 2025-09 — Official channel: which instruments the GS414B PLUS can hold

Hercules' own clips show the stand holding different kinds of instruments and the yoke locking in around the neck.

Why it matters

The AGS yoke locks as the guitar's weight settles into it, which is why this stand family is the usual recommendation when a guitar has to hang in the open. The PLUS revision adds a folding yoke and accepts necks from 40 to 52 mm, with N.I.N.A. adaptors included for narrow necks. It holds up to 15 kg and adjusts from 950 to 1150 mm with an instant clutch.

Note

Hercules' Auto Grip System locks the guitar neck automatically when the instrument is set down, which is why the GS414B family is the default recommendation for hanging stands. The PLUS revision adds a folding yoke, weight is 1.8 kg, and Reverb's product record dates the model to the 2010s.

Specifications

  • Auto Grip System (AGS) yoke, necks 40-52 mm (up to 2 in)
  • instant height-adjustment clutch, 950-1150 mm
  • SFF foam contact points
  • load capacity 15 kg / 33 lbs
  • N.I.N.A. adaptors for narrow necks included

Before you buy

  • check your neck width against the 40-52 mm yoke range — N.I.N.A. adaptors cover narrower necks
  • 15 kg capacity and a 1.8 kg stand, so it suits most electrics and acoustics
  • the PLUS adds a folding yoke, which matters if you pack the stand away
