A stand for supporting one or more musical instruments that swivels to permit the selected musical instrument to be made available directly in front of the user or in another predetermined selected position and can be locked in position for ready access. The present invention comprises a swiveling support post and a fixed inner support post contained therein. The swiveling support post is selectively locked or unlocked in a desired position through employment of a locking swivel assembly. The locking swivel assembly includes a tension spring whose tension force is employed to exert braking pressure thereby locking the outer swivel post in a predetermined selected position. A foot pedal release mechanism is provided which releases the force on the tension spring thereby releasing the braking pressure and allowing free rotation of the outer swivel post. A folding tripod base portion provides support for the entire assembly and folds for ready storage. A plurality of upper and lower musical instrument supports are attached to the swiveling support post wherein said upper musical instrument supports are radially displaced to accommodate the maximum number of musical instruments.
