You won't find many hi-hat stands in its class boasting the impressive features of the TAMA Stage Master HH45SN. Its swivel base is easy to position around snare stands and kick pedals. And its responsive direct-pull action allows for precise timing and cymbal dynamics. A nylon insulator at the end of the pull rod prevents metal-on-metal noise or accidental loosening of the pull rod within the tube. What's more, you get a memory lock to prevent the upper tube from rotating and a toe guard to protect your bare feet from contacting the chain. The HH45SN's single-braced legs reduce carry weight and accommodate the tightest drum setups.
