The Gibraltar 6000 Series Turning Point Double-Braced Cymbal Boom Stand is a feather weight stand that is easy to transport. The double-braced tripod feature makes for the maximum amount of stability (with out all the bulky weight!). The swing nut fast cymbal mounting system makes attaching your cymbal to the stand a snap, all you literally have to do is put on the felt and push down! This stand has 3 tiers and has hinged height adjustments. It also has cast metal parts with ABS inserts so there is no metal to metal contact.
