The Yamaha Crosstown SS3 Snare Stand is rock-solid, durable, light and offers a much more natural snare sound by not choking the shell with too much mass.

"This hardware pack paves the way for a new generation of drum hardware," said Steven Fisher, marketing manager, Yamaha Drums. "We (Yamaha) dedicated our efforts to engineering a lighter, more manageable system that will maintain strength and persevere through the wear and tear of playing out."

Yamaha have taken the wants of needs of gigging drummers into account to make moving drum gear around everyday a breeze.

• Durable, light and stable
