ANAHEIM, CA—New Stadium Hardware™ and Tubular Carriers from Yamaha Corporation of America, Band & Orchestral Division, will make their debut at Winter NAMM 2003.
The new Yamaha Stadium Hardware by MAY is easy to use in the stands or in stand-still performances. A compact design on all stands has caused a reduction in weight for easy transport, while maintaining the stability of Yamaha’s current Stadium Hardware.
A new snare stand facilitates easy drop-in from carrier to Stadium Hardware without extra attachments. The bass stand enables drums to face any direction in the stands, and features memory lock for quick set-up. Tom stands have a U-channel lock, providing quick and safe movement from stand to carrier, and work exclusively with Yamaha tenor rails. All stands feature new round mushroom feet to ensure better traction at any angle and an adjustable third leg for stand or field use, while the clamp-style height adjustment is durable and reliable.

A new carbon fiber belly plate is lighter and stronger than traditional materials, and the aluminum tubes allow infinite torso height adjustment and tow-in adjustment. An adjustable bar rack facilitates easy shoulder adjustment with back bar support, and a new wing SFZ attachment allows tilt and level adjustment with reduced weight.
