Quick-Set Tilter

The Tama HC83BLS Boom Cymbal Stand features Tama’s Quick Set Tilter design.

This toothless tilter holds its position using the friction of six smooth metal disc plates which are set next to each other to create a robust, durable construction.

This means, unlike a geared tilter, the Tama Quick Set Tilter can be adjusted to any angle you choose.

You, therefore, have limitless cymbal positions to ensure you always achieve your ideal, most comfortable playing set up.

Quick-Set Cymbal Mate

Another patented feature of this Tama Roadpro cymbal stand is the wonderful Quick Set Cymbal Mate.

How much time do drummers spend screwing and unscrewing wing nuts, dropping them on the floor, searching round to find where they went, then trying to reattach them to the stand? Not anymore, thanks to the Tama Quick Set Cymbal Mate.

This nifty little design allows you to quickly and easily attach and remove your cymbals for super-fast set up and pack down.

All you need to do is grip and press the two buttons on either side of the cymbal topper. Pinching the buttons unlocks the cymbal mate for easy attachment and removal, while releasing the buttons firmly locks the cymbal mate in place for a secure set up.

You can also adjust the tightness of the cymbal on the stand by rotating the cymbal mate to vary the cymbals freedom of movement. 

The Tama Cymbal Mate is a super timesaving convenient design that we love.

Convertible to Straight

The Tama HC83BLS boom stand can be easily converted to a straight cymbal stand.

If there’s no room for a boom, you can simply store the cymbal arm into the upper tube of the stand for a space saving set up alternative.

This options also allows for easier, more compact storage and makes the stand much more portable.

Reversible Cymbal Sleeve

Tama’s patented reversible cymbal bottom works to protect the centre hole of your cymbals.

Creating a barrier between the cymbal centre hole and the metal stand, the Tama cymbal bottom prevents your cymbals from keyholing, cracks and other damage that can occur from metal to metal contact.

The great feature of the cymbal bottom is that it can be reversed for extended use.

If part of the nylon sleeve begins to wear out you can simply flip it upside down and continue using it. It’s like 2 cymbal sleeves in one.

Glide-Tite Grip Joint

Yet another patented feature, the Glide Tite Grip Joint technology used in Tama’s Roadpro hardware ensures a secure attachment for the most sturdy, stable, reliable set up possible.

The Glide-Tite Grip works by utilising a metal to metal contact to create an extremely solid anchor point that provides a complete isolation from the cymbals.

This means the stand doesn’t move with the cymbal when the cymbal is hit. Instead it allows the cymbal to respond naturally without interference, resulting in maximum resonance.

So, overall the Glide Tite not only provides a more solid cymbal set up it also offers a more natural cymbal response.
