Description
Overview
The Gibraltar 8000 Series Flat Base Extended Height Concert Snare Stand combines a timeless aesthetic with modern engineering to provide a rock-solid foundation for your snare drum. Designed for drummers who require maximum stability without sacrificing portability, this stand features a low-mass structural design and a flat base that lowers the center of gravity, ensuring your instrument remains secure in any playing environment.
Key Details
- Flat Base Stability: Engineered with a flat base design to provide a low center of gravity, significantly reducing the risk of tipping during intense performances.
- Premium Construction: Built from high-lustre chromed steel, offering a professional appearance and durable performance while remaining lightweight for easier transport.
- Key Lock System: The legs utilize a specialized Key Lock system that secures them firmly in place, preventing accidental slippage or shifting on stage.
- Super Lock Height Adjuster: Features a hinged Super Lock mechanism with ABS inserts, ensuring smooth height transitions and eliminating metal-to-metal contact for long-term wear resistance.
- Precision Tilting: Equipped with a fine-toothed geared basket tilter and a single lock system, allowing for precise angle adjustments and a secure hold on your preferred playing position.
Use Cases
This stand is an ideal choice for concert percussionists and orchestral drummers who need the extended height range to accommodate larger drums or specific seating arrangements. It is equally suited for professional touring drummers who prefer the traditional look of a flat base but require the reliability of modern locking mechanisms to handle high-energy stage environments.
Installation
Setup is straightforward and tool-free. Begin by unfolding the flat base legs and engaging the Key Lock system to secure the footprint. Use the Super Lock Height Adjuster to raise the stand to your desired height (ranging from 25.5″ to 40.5″). Finally, place your snare drum in the basket and use the geared tilter to set the angle, tightening the single lock to secure the position.
Compatibility
This stand is compatible with all standard snare drums. The extended height range (25.5″ to 40.5″ measured to the bottom hoop) makes it particularly suitable for deep concert snares or players who require a higher-than-average playing position.
