Every drummer knows the frustration of a cymbal stand that creeps, wobbles, or collapses mid set. The Yamaha CS-665A is the answer to all of that. This is the stand you set up once, forget about, and just play.The double braced legs give you a rock solid foundation that stays planted no matter how hard you hit. Whether you are a heavy hitter who lays into crashes with everything you have or a finesse player who needs precise cymbal positioning for fast hi hat work, this stand holds its position through the whole gig. No creeping. No wobbling. No adjusting between songs.The offset tilter is one of those features that sounds small until you actually use it. It lets you position your cymbal at the exact angle you want without fighting the stand. Get your ride sitting perfectly flat for jazz comping or tilt your crash right where your stick naturally wants to land. Once you dial it in it stays there.Despite the double braced construction Yamaha kept this stand genuinely lightweight and compact. Load in and load out are already hard enough. A stand that packs down small and does not add unnecessary weight to your hardware bag is a real quality of life improvement on gig days. This one delivers that without sacrificing any stability.At 86 dollars this is one of the best values in cymbal hardware right now. Drummers in Charleston West Virginia and New Albany Ohio both know that good hardware is an investment that pays off every single gig.
