Mapex Cymbal Boom Stand Mars B600, Black

I bought my mapex Mars bonewood kit approx 5 years ago due the shell finishes and contrasting black hardware. I have been giggin regularly with this kit and hardware, however, recently one of the boom stand wing nuts thread housing completely sheared off the stand due to metal fatigue and I purchased this as a replacement stand. Plus points: lightweight, versatile and compliments my current kit. Down points: over time the anodised coating can become scratched when the stands are in transport unless you go to great effort to wrap each stand individually. The other down side is that I understand this hardware has now been discontinued by Mapex so if I get any further product failures I will consider moving back to chrome finished hardware (and maybe a new set of shells…).
Overall, the stands are good value for money for a semi professional user but need care and attention when being transported.

Looks realy nice, secure,safe and strong(dont be afraid to hit the cymbals :)mixes perfectly with the drum and the cymbals. I realy love this mapex material and im gona buy more from Mapex here in musicstore! If you have a black drum set or dark coloured cymbals this is the right choice!
