The Yamaha Hardware Set HW3 Crosstown is an ultra-light 4-piece aluminium hardware set consisting of 2 x CS3 cymbal stands, one HHS3 hi-hat stand and one SS3 snare stand. The total weight of the set is only 7.8 kg. Thanks to the sturdy anti-slip rubber feet, the lightweight Yamaha drum hardware always holds its own, even when large cymbals are mounted. The included carrying bag holds all parts of the set and also offers space for another hardware part, such as a single pedal or drum stool.
Designed as the lightest possible hardware set on the market, Yamaha's generous use of aluminium has saved a lot of weight, while reinforced steel parts in places with high loads provide the usual stability. With a total weight of only 7.8 kg, transport as well as assembly and dismantling are made easy. The use of Yamaha's universal 22 mm tube diameter also makes the set fully compatible with existing Yamaha System Drum hardware. The sandblasted surface is extremely resistant to fingerprints, abrasion and oxidation. The stands look like new for so long, even if you are on the road a lot as a live drummer.
The included carrying bag not only has enough space for all parts of the set, but also leaves enough room for additional equipment such as pedals or a drum stool. The dust jackets, which are included in the scope of delivery, offer a further advantage when transporting the HW3 Crosstown Hardware Set.
Fantastic for the busy drummer! Yamaha have really surprised me with the quality and functionality of this range of hardware. It is beautifully made and so well thought out, and the weight of the stands is simply outstanding. Highly recommended if you need some extremely lightweight, simple and sturdy hardware.
