February 04, 2020:

Being a percussionist in school, a garage band drummer, or a professional musician requires quality instruments and the accompanying equipment. Cymbal stands are just one of the many pieces of hardware you need for successful drumming. We included a variety of models suitable for different types of cymbals, as well as budgets.

If you want quality and durability at an affordable price, the Gibraltar Hi-Hat is a great option from a trusted manufacturer. At just over five pounds, it is easy to move from gig to gig. The Mapex B200RB is a no-frills style that simply does the job of holding your cymbal in place for an affordable price. Several models, including the Pearl Boom, convert into straight stands for even more versatility.

No matter what your particular cymbal stand needs may be, you are bound to find a worthy contender in our selection of the best options available today.
