Read MoreIf you teach a mariachi program, you know how quickly all the various instruments can take over your space. The Band Room Mariachi Instrument Rack helps you keep your instruments organized, protected, and ready to roll – whether you're rehearsing in the music room or performing in the auditorium, cafeteria, gym, or anywhere.
✓ Made for Mariachi Instruments
This rack is designed to fit the unique shapes of traditional stringed mariachi instruments, giving you plenty of room to safely and neatly store everything from guitarrons and vihuelas with their joroba-shaped bodies, all the way to requintos, bajo quintos, and classical guitars.
✓ Store Guitars in Cases or Out
It holds up to 20 guitars or cases, with removable pegs that help keep everything upright.
✓ Adjustable to Fit Smaller Instruments Too
It includes an extra rail setting to fit small or ¾-size acoustic guitars.
✓ Keeps Instruments Safe When You’re Not Around
The built-in cable-and-lock system gives you peace of mind by helping prevent theft, especially when instruments are left in the room during breaks or after school.
✓ Easy to Move from Room to Room
The heavy-duty wheels make it simple to roll all your instruments wherever you need them. If you're teaching on a cart or moving to a performance space, this rack makes transport quick and safe. Locking brakes hold it steady when you get there.
✓ Built to Last in Busy Classrooms
Made in the U.S.A. with strong, durable materials, this rack is built for the day-to-day needs of mariachi programs. It's tough enough to handle frequent use by you and your students.
FAQs
Q: How many instruments will fit?
A: Instruments and cases vary in size from manufacturer to manufacturer. Each of the two-tier shelves is 66.75" wide – you should measure the combined width of all your instruments and/or cases.
Q: Will regular and ¾-size acoustic guitars fit?
A: Yes.
Q: Can it also hold violins?
A: No, but there are separate violin storage racks available for purchase.
Q: How many inches of space are needed between the rack and the wall so the instruments and cases do not rub against the wall?
A: You should leave approximately 6 inches of space, depending on the instruments or cases.
Q: How much weight will these shelves support?
A: These shelves are designed for lighter-weight instruments. For heavier solid-body guitars and acoustics with heavy cases, please check out the Session-Pro™ Double-Stack Mobile Guitar Case Shelf Racks.
Q: Is the rack nitro-safe?
A: No, it is not. If you need a nitro-safe solution, see the Session-Pro™ Double-Stack.
Q: How easy is the rack to assemble?
A: We provide clearly illustrated instructions and all necessary hardware. Assembly is much easier if you have help from a second person.
Q: How many inches will the instrument cases extend above the height of the rack?
A: It can vary somewhat depending on the case model but generally we suggest about 7-8 in for ceiling clearance.
Q: Does the listed height of 69-½ inches include the wheels?
A: Yes.
Q: What size doorway will the rack fit through?
A: It will fit through doorways at least 80" high and 33" wide. Instruments and cases add further height and width – check clearance before proceeding.
Q: Can the separator dowels be easily removed to fit more cases?
A: Yes, they are all removable. They can be placed anywhere along the rail, or they can be removed completely to give you more storage area.
Q: Will the instruments or cases directly contact the wood of the cross rails?
A: No. There is a high-grade, durable plastic molding along the rails that the instruments and cases rest on.
Q: Can the rack be assembled and used without the wheels?
A: Yes. Wheels are provided so you can move the rack your room, but it can certainly be used without the wheels. If you have low ceilings and need extra height, you may prefer to eliminate the wheels, which add six inches.
