A stand for carrying a reel around which a linear product such as wire may be wound. The stand comprises a base and a support member for engaging the reel in a manner that permits the reel to rotate so that the linear product may be unwound therefrom or wound thereon. The stand comprises a line guide having a guide head designed to guide the linear product during the winding or unwinding process. The guide head is carried on a guide arm which is configured to be mounted on the stand. Optionally, the line guide and stand are configured to provide a position on the stand where the line guide may be stowed when not in use. Preferably, the guide arm is flexible to permit the desired positioning of the guide head and, optionally, to facilitate stowage.
