My first Tama hardware, this cymbal stand is multi-adjustable, so I can get my ride cymbal in just the right place, perfectly balanced, solid, and built like a Rolls Royce - beautiful. The only negative is there are no memory locks, like on my old Pearl hardware, but an easy fix, just a piece of tape and a marker pen - sorted. Having owned Pearl and Premier drums & hardware over the years, this is definitely a leap forward in quality (I wish I could say the same about my playing, as that as rusty as some of my 30-year-old hardware!) Now I just need to (funds permitting) get the Tama kit next, as my old Premier kit is showing it's age too...!
