The Tama HC43BW Stage Master Boom Cymbal Stand offers a lot of the great functionality, stability and quality found in the Tama STAR and ROADPRO hardware series. Its wide range of adjustability and features make it a solid choice for beginners, intermediate and professional players as well. The new Stage Master boom cymbal stand with double braced legs now features the Quick-Set cymbal mate for faster setup and breakdown. The boom stand can easily be converted to a straight cymbal stand simply by inserting the boom arm into the upper tube. Quick-Set Cymbal MateBy simply gripping and pressing the two buttons on the both sides, users can attach and remove the Cymbal Mate with just one touch, making cymbals setup/breakdown a snap. Fine adjustments to the cymbal's swinging motion can be made by rotating the unit. Die-Cast JointThe Die-Cast Joint design provides a more solid attachment by holding the tube with a Nylon Bushing that is secured by the T-bolt. This reduces any play within the stand, which in turn maximizes the instrument’s natural resonance. Tripod LegsThe Stage Master double braced leg stands now feature a streamlined design inspired by the STAR and ROADPRO series, easing drummer's setup woes by minimizing contact between stands in tight spaces.
