Thank you for viewing. This is a TAMA hi-hat stand for sale. It is a rod-drive model. While there are signs of use, dullness, and minor scratches commensurate with its age, the quality and construction of the metal parts are solid, and it has a rugged, vintage feel not found in current models. Both the foot pedal action and the up-and-down movement of the rod are smooth, and it is in a condition that allows for normal use as is. There are no malfunctions that would interfere with playing. Because it is direct-drive with a rod instead of a chain, the foot pedal action is direct, making it ideal for those who prefer fine control and also recommended for practice or as a secondary piece of equipment. Please check the condition of the exterior in the photos. Please purchase only if you understand that this is a used, vintage piece of equipment.
