High-quality Snare Stand





Gibraltar’s 4706 snare stand delivers the perfect balance between stability and mobility, so it’s both easy to move and stays put when you want it to. Double-braced legs (found on all 4700 series stands) and thick tubes work together to keep your snare from wobbling, and a geared basket tilter fixes your drum in place.

Geared tilter locks basket angle into place


Made with durable 5?8"-3?4" diameter tubes


Extends from 16" to 24" for easy adjustment

Straight and Boom Cymbal Stands





The 4700 Series Lightweight Hardware Pack includes two cymbal stands, a 4710 straight stand and a 4709 boom stand. Both are double braced and feature hinged height adjustments. Rattling isn’t an issue, thanks to nylon collar inserts, and they’re height adjustable from 30" up to 57" for the boom stand and up to 47" for the straight stand.

No drum hardware kit is complete without pedals, and this 4700 Series Lightweight Hardware Pack includes some real gems. The 4707 double-braced hi-hat stand is incredibly sturdy, thanks to its cast base. It features the same hinged height adjustment mechanism as the cymbal stands, while a memory lock makes setup fast and easy. The 4711ST is a strap-drive single bass pedal, and it’s delightfully smooth. The Fast Touch pedalboard and weighted beater feel great too, and its cast base stays put.
