Gibraltar Grabber Cymbal Arm w/Clamp Hardware (SC-GCA)

At first I thought I'd wasted my money because the clamp would not fit the cymbal holder that came with my cocktail drum kit. Don't worry, thought. There's a work-around. Just flip the clamp half that has the open hole. It'll then be able to grab anything, even a coat hanger.I now have it mounted on my cocktail drum kit, with a 10" splash on it. This clamp on holder is rugged enough to hold a much heavier cymbal. Maybe a 20", as long as the stand it's connected to will support it.The only reason I gave four stars is the shrink-wrap that was literally form fitting around the entire rig, and it's wing-nuts. It took a rutty half hour to get all that shrink wrap off. LOLAlthough I was able to work around the fitting issue, I wish the manufacturer had provided a second adaptor to fit around narrow diameter rods without having to flip bits to set things to rights.The elbows do a nice job of holding their positions without slipping.

This cymbal arm is very high quality for the price. It's fairly heavy but it's a good indication of its very solid and robust construction.The mechanism that grabs onto your cymbal stand is very, very effective.If you're a hard hitter like me and you're concerned about the arm moving around because of the force of your cymbal hitting, you don't need to worry. I've really given my Sabian 16" O-Zone Crash a good thrashing and bashing and the arm did not slide down the stand. The force of my thrashing and bashing did not cause the arm rotate at all. It stayed right where I put it.If you want more places to put more cymbals but don't feel like spending the money on another stand or maybe don't have the space to put another stand, look no further because this is a solution at a VERY affordable price.If I needed to, which I will quite soon, I would not think twice about buying a second one.Highly, highly recommended!

The hardware shipped before anything else in my 12 item cart and 2 days before predicted which was awesome. It arrived in an oversized box (as most things do these days) wrapped neatly n brown packing paper. Everything was there and in mint condition. There are no directions but it's just about the most self explanatory thing ever to hit the planet. I clamped it on one of my weaker cymbal stands to test it out. It holds very sturdy, and is fully adjustable. I attached a rather heavy cymbal to it (5-8 lbs estimate) and started crashing it as hard as I could. The arm held in place, didn't slip, and practically didn't even quiver. This arm was much more than I expected. It is extremely stable and of the utmost quality. This should be priced $25-$50 higher than it is. Don't even think twice about buying this. throw it in your cart and buy about 2 or 3. Fantastic product for an even greater price. BUY IT!!!

This arm is good for a rack, or attaching onto any kit. I personally do not use a rack, as I try to cram as much as I can into a small footprint (you never know how large (or small) the performance space will be). I have two of these, and I use them for my smaller cymbals ( 8" meinl bell & 10 Paiste splash). The design of the arm allows me to have a lot of flexibility on where to put the cymbals. One arm is attached to my main crash stand over the snare, and the other is attached to the high-tom shaft.The arm is easiest to work with when you separate the arm from the clamp, and deal with the clamp first.

I bought this for use with my PCY135s I bought for my Yamaha DTX500 electronic drum kit. Bottom line - these are fantastic. Great build quality, fantastic functionality, and good looks all equal a winner.Setup is easy and you can position the cymbal exactly how you want it right down to the inch. Although I am using it for an electronic drum kit, I cannot image this is any different with a regular cymbal. The knurling is in all the right spots and provides excellent grip and functionality. One tightening on to the rack there is no slipping whatsoever.Shipping was fast and packaging was adequate for it to arrive completely undamaged.Verdict: If you are looking for a well priced and high quality cymbal arm, you will have a hard time finding a better product for a better price.

Strong, durable, well-made clamp. My only gripe is that there is not another adjustment point on this one. However, this is extremely well made. With this clamp, I have a 21" Sabian HHX Groove Ride mounted to my tom holder. The boom arm is positioned at approximately 45-degrees and it does not budge, even when the ride is crashed forcefully. I recommend buying this. Alternatively, if you need more adjustment points, the Gibralter long cymbal boom/clamp has a third one. I have one and it seems to be just as sturdy as this one -- I have a 20-inch crash/ride mounted to it.

Got the SC-GCA a few days ago and I must say I am glad I decided to get it. It fits nicely in the tiny area I wanted it to fit in; I've trashed the hell out of the splash I have mounted on it and not once has it slipped or performed inferior. The build quality is excellent, something that I expect of Gibraltar...anything less and I would have been disappointed.The cymbal arm itself is very strong and solid. The clamp, pretty beefy for it "small" size. The I-Bolt spring loaded ratchet tilter is perfect to angle the arm wherever you want it.It's a strong, yet light-weight piece of hardware that any drummer will find a use for on their kit. All in all, a great buy.

I took this out of the box and right to set up for a gig. I clamped it to a blackhawk boomstand that i bought through sears a few years back I have a 16 inch crash on the boom stand and put a 17 inch crash on this arm i played all night and the cymbal was in exactly the same place I put it when I started!! At teardown I didnt even take the arm off the boom stand and when i set back up everything was just how it was supposed to be!! as I add cymbals to my set I will be buying more of these without even questioning the product or the value!!!

Lo agarré en oferta y el producto es rigido, solido y resistente. Por el precio es un gran producto

Ottima soluzione qualità prezzo

Great cymbal holder very ideal solution for extra splashes, crashes, China, Fx and stack cymbals.Check out the photo of the cymbal holder on my kit.

Comprata come supporto per splash da 12" da agganciare al charleston, asta rigida e ben rifinita, snodabile in due punti, clamp che è idoneo ad aste non troppo sottili, dimensioni come da descrizione. Prezzo forse un pelo eccessivo, comunque in linea con la buona qualità del prodotto.

Toujours aussi pratique ces petites perchettes. Très maniable. Nickel
