Ever set your soprano sax or flugelhorn on a stand and held your breath, worried about dings or scratches on that flawless lacquer? The Hercules DS503B Deluxe Velvet Peg changes that. Designed specifically for these slender instruments, it slips right onto your Hercules stand (or compatible ones) and cradles your horn with plush velvet.
Soprano saxophones and flugelhorns have unique neck shapes—too loose, and they wobble; too tight, and you're risking damage. This peg nails the balance. The velvet covering is thick yet supple, gripping just enough to hold steady without pressure points. It's built tough from durable plastic with reinforced edges, so it withstands daily use in home studios, rehearsal spaces, or on the gig circuit.
Picture this: You're midway through a long practice session, sweat beading, fingers flying. Your sax stays put, no adjustments needed. Or loading up for a wedding gig—it packs flat, survives the van ride, and deploys instantly. The velvet even resists dust buildup; a quick wipe keeps it fresh. Over time, you'll notice how it extends the life of your instrument's finish, saving you repair costs down the line.
Musicians rave about it in online forums—'Finally, a peg that doesn't treat my horn like a coat hanger!' Whether you're a student building your setup or a pro with a collection, this little upgrade brings peace of mind. Pair it with a full Hercules stand for the ultimate protection system.
Grab the DS503B and let your playing—not your worries—take center stage.
