JPJ Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 So, at rehearsals the other night I had difficulty tightening the bolt that holds the vertical section of the stand. A quick investigation showed this Given that this bolt is used frequently, I’ve replaced it with a bicycle seat post quick release which is working better than the original imho. Just sharing here in case anyone else encounters the same issue 😎 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyJohnson Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 I don't like the stand on mine at all. (see thread elsewhere) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodinblack Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 I haven't had that issue with my NS, but I have that problem all the time with PA stands etc. That seems like a good thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyJohnson Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 I just think the stand is really flimsy and the footprint is too big. I have a little powered monitor stand that's waaaay more robust/sturdy. I (still) need to work out a way to join these two together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 I have a CR5M which comes with the heavier tilt-back stand which is great. I've not had ant problems with it but this solution to replacing the bolt is inspired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burns-bass Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 I replaced mine with a drum stand and it was infinitely better. I think I did a thread on here somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burns-bass Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 I think I used this one. I added a couple of fabric washers between the adjustable bit that sticks in the back of the bass. Im sure you can get these cheaper second hand to give it a try. https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/pearl-bc-830-boom-cymbal-stand?dfw_tracker=165313-28148&&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&campaignid=19688664888&adgroupid=&keyword=&gclid=CjwKCAjwqZSlBhBwEiwAfoZUIL8R3y-78jfakTXNdcpbGDdaeTpb7gHwlSBqoFAPgkDSTyqhUHIz7RoCavQQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I gave you a pretty robust set of options that you could use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
