Yamaha HS-1200 Hi-Hat Stand Direct Drive - Durable

The Yamaha HS-1200 Hi-Hat Stand is built around a direct-drive mechanism that eliminates the flex and lag associated with chain or strap systems. This translates to a more immediate connection between your foot and the cymbals, which is particularly beneficial for drummers who rely on precise, fast hi-hat work. The inclusion of two different length upper pull rods is a standout feature, allowing you to adjust the mechanical advantage of the pedal to suit everything from light jazz footwork to heavy rock playing.

The tripod base combines two single-braced legs with one double-braced leg, a design choice that keeps the stand lighter and more compact than fully double-braced models while still providing reasonable stability during performance. The locking clutch ensures the top hi-hat cymbal stays exactly where you set it, even through aggressive playing sessions. Backed by Yamaha's 5-year warranty, the HS-1200 is a reliable option for working drummers who want direct-drive precision without stepping up to the heaviest, most expensive stands in Yamaha's lineup.
