Hercules is a brand of instrument stands and accessories owned by KHS Musical Instruments Co., Ltd., a Taiwanese musical instrument manufacturer operating since 1930. The Hercules brand launched in 2002 with its first-generation Auto Grip System (AGS) guitar stands and hangers — a patented self-locking yoke mechanism that automatically secures an instrument's neck when placed on the stand. The AGS technology, along with the brand's Specially Formulated Foam (SFF) rubber contact points designed to protect delicate finishes including nitrocellulose lacquer, quickly established Hercules as a go-to choice for gigging and studio musicians.

The product line extends well beyond guitar stands. Hercules manufactures stands and support hardware for bass, ukulele, orchestral and folk instruments, brass and woodwind, drums, keyboards, microphones, music sheets, DJ and pro audio gear, speakers, and lighting. Popular models include the GS414B PLUS single guitar stand, the GS526B PLUS six-guitar display rack, and the GSP38WB PLUS wall hanger. The brand also offers tablet, smartphone, laptop, and podcast microphone stands. Hercules products are manufactured in company-owned KHS factories with distribution handled through KHS America, based in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee.

Hercules has 56 products cataloged on Equipboard, including DJ Controllers, Headphones & In-Ear Monitors, and Active & Passive Monitors. Their gear is featured by 11 artists, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Rock, and Pop. Notable users include emma essex, Joey Walker, and The Living Tombstone. Hercules's catalog spans the full price spectrum — from entry-level options to high-end flagships.
