I'm contemplating getting a new kit. The kits I am interested in have virgin bass drums. I play a 5-piece kit: 10/12/14/22 with a snare of course. So I have 10 and 12 toms to mount. The standard way of doing this seems to be mounting each tom on a double-braced tom/cymbal boom combo stand. So that would require TWO of these stands which look like heavy tanks. (I know I could mount both tom on a tom stand but then the toms are pushed over to the left, and I'm just not used to this.)
The question being...has anyone had success just getting say a tom bracket and mounting it on a single braced lightweight stand? Do rack toms really gotta be mounted on those heavy tanks? This is probably a silly question, but...
Thanks for any replies.
