The single Hercules is what I use for my guitars and banjo. I have 2 of them. I have a Hercules uke clamp which I use for the mandolin. I'm gonna check out the string swing for use in my studio to have violin close at hand otherwise I don't reach for it as often as I'd like.
I have the three guitar version that is at least 10 years old and never had an issue with stability with just one instrument on it. Probably more stable than my 6 guitar string swing stands.
Most people don't read, understand or remember descriptions of what they buy let alone the manuals andor seriously lack common sense. Old colleague of mine borrowed my Hercules stand 15 or so years ago and he just didn't unfold the tripod legs properly/fully and said it isn't stable with his Les Paul even though my 5-string bass was a lot heavier and I've never had a problem with this stand being unstable and he knew that. If I research products I almost exclusively read the negative reviews and if it's a good day perhaps 40% of those are actually useful.
