The Yamaha CS7 Single-Braced Boom Cymbal Stand combines precise cymbal positioning with flexible boom-to-straight configuration. Its 13" boom uses a Hinged Boom Tilter Clamp with three-point clamping for secure, repeatable placement, while the gear-equipped Center Cymbal Tilter provides precise angle adjustment. Yamaha's Quick Release Nut simplifies cymbal installation, and the Sound Enhanced Cymbal Washer offers a two-piece design with a removable foam outer layer for adjustable cymbal response. The boom retracts into the upper tube for straight-stand use and more compact transport.
