I’ve been using the Yamaha Crosstown Hardware for about 18 months now. I added an extra cymbal stand and I can say, without doubt that these are absolutely superb quality. They’re light, easy to use, easy to set up and break down. I do have two other Yamaha boom stands in my set up, but these are a real game changer in lightweight hardware. Great summary video!
Brilliant content Chris. Was very close to going down this route myself but two factors put me off. Firstly, call me lazy but there's no way I'm taking them out of the cases before and after every rehearsal and gig. I want to be setup and takedown ASAP. Secondly, I mount toms from my cymbal stands and was concerned that they might mark the aluminium or even dent it... Amazing creation but not for me. Keep up the great work 👍 🎶 🥁
I think you are right on both counts - I wouldn’t hang anything more than a 10” and yeah the sleeves…. Next video is a direct comp of the Crosstown and the Tama Classic that I already reviewed. I have a soft spot for the Tama stuff somehow. I also have the 700 stuff - prob the best all round

Awesome thanks for watching
Looking forward to the comparison video between both the Yamaha and Tama.
It’s an interesting one. Thanks for watching
