Hello
I play a Yamaha SC 5-piece set and recently switched to an offset layout for my toms. I have the Yamaha 3-hole reciever and enjoy using it, and wanted to use a stand for it instead of buying a whole new unit. Basically, I need a base to stick the reciever into.
Anyway, I kept reading that any Yamaha cymbal stand should accept the reciever. Well, I tried my Yamaha boom cymbal stand that has two levels of telescoping bars. The smaller hole was too small, and the larger whole was too large. I found that if I tightened enough, it seems to clasp around the reciever's tube, but it doesnt feel snug. Only with a memory lock do I feel secure that it wont slide down, however, I dont like how easily it rotates!
When Yamaha says that any cymbal stand will accept the 3-hole reciever, do they mean that it will fit in snugly, or that it will fit, period??
