LP 330A Bongo Stand Upper Body

LP n'est pas une compagnie spécialiste du hardware, on s'en était aperçu... Encore une preuve de ce constat avec ce système. L'idée est ingénieuse, notamment pour les percussionnistes jouant sur praticable, cela permet de gagner de la place en accrochant les bongos au dessus du "vide". Cependant le bras qui déporte la perche est un peu long, et non réglable... Ce qui éloigne sérieusement les bongos des congas, on peut rattraper un peu en tournant la rotule crantée, mais c'est pas génial... Sinon une fois attaché ça tient sans aucun problème.

A pair of bongos were bought as a present for me. I deliberated over whether it would be a good idea to add these to my rack kit.
I contacted the guys at Thomann to see if there was any stand/pipe available to allow me to take this step and they recommended this item.
So I eventually put the order in and it arrived in December.
It is a very solid chrome pipe blending in very well with my chrome drum rack.
I connected the bongos to the 'stand' using the elasticated strap and adjusted the angle using the lock at the top. Even though the description states this item is for use with a conga stand, I attached it to my drum rack using the ever functional Dixon rack clamps.
I have been using the stand now for over 4 weeks now at home - and the stand has more than withstood any gravitational pressures applied to it.
It's a nice simple piece of kit and I now realise I should have gone with my initial gut feel and Thomann recommendation all those months ago. I look forward to the stand giving me many hours of fun in my hobby.
