Axe Hugger® is the patented, revolutionary slip-on cover for your guitar stand cradle.
Axe Hugger® was created from a desire for convenience and a need for safety when it comes to the everyday care of a guitarist’s prized possession…their Axe. It does not make sense that, after purchasing a guitar, you may be instructed to refrain from cradling it in a guitar stand because long-term use can deteriorate and damage your guitar’s finish.
Our solution was to create a protective barrier (protecting your guitar’s finish from damage) that also transforms the entire look and feel of the guitar stand. Once just a place to put your guitar, your guitar stand can now become a beautiful respectful gesture. Hug your guitar!
Axe Hugger® was born from love – the genuine love of an instrument and the need to protect it. After its creation it became apparent that this need was felt by many musicians. Word spread, and continues to spread – no longer do musicians have to risk marring their instruments in the potentially damaging cradle of instrument stands. Axe Hugger® is dedicated to protecting all musical instruments including guitars and saxophones.
At Axe Hugger® our goal is to “Hug” (protect) ALL musical instruments. The oxidation protection properties and diverse selection of styles offer protection and a sense of personal identity that musicians seek.
Axe Huggers® business philosophy is simple – A good music product created by good people of music.
Some guitar stands are made with rubber padding that may contain chlorine – this can oxidize the finish of your guitar. Our solution was to create a protective cover that also transforms the entire look and feel of the guitar stand.
The original model of Axe Hugger® used a velvet fabric to protect your axe. Now, we are releasing Axe Hugger® with a microfiber fabric! There is a reason Axe Hugger®, guitar manufacturers and guitar care companies use microfiber towels... it's the most gentle, least toxic fabric to use to keep your guitar or instrument in top shape.

Ultimate Stand
Axe Hugger is simply awesome! I had one of my prized guitars have a reaction to the foam/rubber of a guitar stand some years ago, and when I saw Axe Hugger, there was no doubt I would get one for my new Paul Reed Smith.
