All of my stands are single-braced and have been for a long time. I have used them in rock, blues, funk, jazz, and praise and worship. I do not play real loud, but I do wack 'em pretty hard sometimes. Some drummers believe that double-braced stands must be better, but I do not believe this is always the case.
Gibraltar, Yamaha, and Tama all make good quality single-braced stands. Mine are Gibraltar (cymbal, snare), Tama (cymbal), and Mapex (hihat). I have used the Tama stand for two cymbals, and one tom and a cymbal. I also have a cymbal boom arm that I attach to my bass-drum-mounted tom holder. The less I have to move around the better.
So what do you think? Anyone else a believer in single-braced stands?
