Yamaha HS1000 Hi Hat Stand

The H-2000 Hi Hat Stand

Advantages: Almost Fully Customisable, Great Fail-Safe Features, Heavy Duty, Hidden Foot Spikes
Disadvantages: Ridiculously Expensive! The Rubber Felts Tend To Go Missing, No Spares

I own an H-2000 hi hat stand, and it is amazing! Its built especially so that you can have your slave pedal (from your double bass pedal or whatever pedal you cant to keep next to your hi-hat) right next too it without having to worry that a 3rd leg will be in the way. *The cam is interchangeable with 4 different colour coded types allowing you to select the action of your hi-hat (slow then fast, fast consistent, slow consistent and fast then slow). *The spring is also adjustable which allows you to change the strength of the feel of the hi-hat raising up. The clutch comes with a fail-safe nut and when tightened is meant to keep the cymbal from unscrewing it (it has saved me a million times!) However the clutch doesn't have a fail safe for keeping to the stem, which gets a little annoying because if you smack the wing nut, the top hi-hat ...

Review of Pearl Hi-Hat Stands

Hi- hat for everyone!!

Advantages: Robust, flexible to environment, easy to find parts
Disadvantages: heavy (what do you expect)

Pearl are one of the best known drum brands, this is because of the quality of products they offer. i bought a Pearl T-100w hi-hat stand around four years ago, and its still as good as new. Pearl hi-hat stands are one of the most robust and widely used stands i have encountered in my eight years of playing. Some features include a 'swivel' base, allowing space to be made for a double pedal, it also has a hightly adjustable spring for foot pressures, allowing any player to find their most comfortable playing style. It is easy to find pearl spares on-line. i lost the metal washer that the high-hat sits on, and within a week my local drum centre had shipped one in for a very low price, perfect for a busy schedule. This product was a great purchase and i would be surprised if i have to buy another stand in the future. ...

Review of Pearl Hi-Hat Stands

Hats On !

Advantages: Looks elegant, keeps my eyes shaded.
Disadvantages: None whatsoever.

for around 20 GBP whereas the top products can fetch a retail price of 1000 GBP. What is the difference between fine and coarse hats? Weaving begins at the apex of the crown, a spiral of rings or vueltas spans out from there, it's the number of vueltas that determines the quality of a hat, the cheaper quality has up to ten vueltas, the expensive one can have as many as forty. From the net: " The greatest weavers work only by the light of the moon or when the sky is overcast. Constantly dipping their sharp pointed fingers in water, they split the fibres razor thin, and with all the virtuosity of a spinning wheel, plait ring after ring of palm into fabric so soft and dense that it equals silk. The hats are then pummelled and trimmed and groomed and scrubbed. . . . "The sides and crown are carefully beaten to even them out, but ...
