Thread: Rack tom stands

    Default Rack tom stands

    So I really like my new Mapex Armory kit, but I'm really considering buying a double tom stand with a boom arm for a crash cymbal in order to get the rack toms off of two separate boom stands. For those who have something like this what are you using and/or what would you suggest?

    I won a recent ebay auction on some concert toms a 6" an 8". Tama makes good stands, I really like the old heavy Titan stuff. I found a used double tom stand and I started playing double bass but I had to switch to a no leg hi hat to get the hats closer to the snare because the double bass pedal was in the way. So I made a bracket that comes of the double tom stand to the no leg hi hat stand. So now the concert toms are just a little above the hats and I'm eventually gonna tree off the double stand with a bracket that will hold a small crash above the concert toms. Tama makes a single tom cymbal stand. but I"m pretty sure you will have to get a bracket to come off of a double tom stand if you want it to hold a cymbal as well. I've not seen any double tom stands that are made to also hold a cymbal.. I'm sure they are out there but I've not seen them.

    Hey, your stuff has tipped over. Windy day, huh?

    DWhipper, I have a TAMA double tom stand that I'm no longer using. It was an "add-on" I bought when needing an 8 and 10" tom arrangement. I sold the toms and kept that stand.

    Any interest unless you want strictly Mapex products? It sits stored in my SKB hard case as of this posting.

    I recently bought a very heavy duty Gibraltar tom stand for about $100 new. Worth every penny as the HD cymbal stand used beforehand swayed more than I was comfortable with.

    I'm not opposed to Tama hardware. Can you inbox me some photos and price?

    LOL, I lost track of this thread and couldn't find it. I apologize. I had evening activities that started last week that I wasn't aware of. I've not had time to barely go home and have dinner and then out the door. Plus I played this weekend so I was busy prepping for that.

    To be honest, I don't think I can save you any money. By the time we agree on a price and figure in shipping, you will easily be at $100.00 or more.

    Currently, there is a new one on one of the internet big box stores for $83.00. It is very similar to mine. I couldn't sell mine for that and give you a deal on shipping. I hope you understand.

    In looking out for your best interest, you would be well off just buying something off the net. I don't think I'd be competitive.
