Without a budget, can we assume that the sky is the limit?

3 - Sonor 600 Series MBS 673 mini boom cymbal stands.  This has a retractable boom arm, so you can also use it as a straight cymbal stand. 

1 - Taye XP1.01 single bass drum pedal (http://www.tayedrums.com/)

1 - Yamaha HS1100 hi-hat stand

1 - Pearl DR-2000BR drum throne

Pretty Much, The Pastor Suggested that I get new Hard Ware because I have to Lug all My hardware to church ever Sunday. Plus my Hi Hat Stand called it quits on me! ;D

I'm not sure of your local store's selection, but most 'mainstream' places that I've been to does not have the following items:

- Sonor 600 Series MBS 673 mini boom cymbal stands.
- Pearl DR-2000BR drum throne
- Taye XP1.01 single bass drum pedal

Some stores may have the Yamaha HS1100 in stock. 

Good luck.

Our Mom and Pop Music store are terrible. But I called Guitar Center and they said that they would have to order them because they dont carry that stuff in the store. I also asked about some of the Meinls and they told me the same thing about them.

Meinl? are you old enough to say that word? j_kay gave you some very solid thoughts on hardware! Sonor cymbal stands are spot on. But, as with anything, it boils down to personal preference. The small nuances that j_kay or myself like about a certain brand, may be something that you dont like. Bottom line, please your eyes, your limbs and your gear. I'd double check on your budget, and make sure the sky is the limit. Them Sonor's gonna costya!  ;)

Good Luck on your hunt.

...Yamboy, when the heck are you going to grow up and be a man???  Dude, as long as you've been here you should know what's good hardware and what's not.  PAY ATTENTION!!!! >:(  Research these items sir...


Pearl BC2000 Boom Stand

Pearl B1000 Boom Stand

Pearl C1000 Straight Stand

DW 5700 Straight/Boom Stand

DW 9710 Straight Stand

DW 5710 Heavy Duty Straight Stand

TAMA RoadPro Boom with detachable counter weight

TAMA RoadPro Straight Stand

...the Throne, Pedal and Hihat Stand are personal.  Honestly, there's no use in getting a  DW 9500TB 2-Leg Hi-Hat Stand if you can't even work the PDP that you own. :-\  That's wasting the church's money. LOL

Thanks for the help, I should really have put the Pedal or the Throne  on there because like you said those are personal choices I have to make.  But I do however need help with the Hi Hat stand because I want something that Is heavy weight and Double Braced because Im tired of my hi hat stand collapsing in the middle of me playing.  But Funky what does not knowing as much about hardware as you do have to do with me "Growing up and being a man" ?  ?/?.

...the word of the day for you is "Initiative". 

...now, as for the hihat stand....if you have a cheap or middle line hihat stand and it doesn't work, then you need a new one.  Sometimes, all you need is the part that holds the "top hihat".  That's called a "Hihat Clutch".  ;) 

...Pearl, DW, Yamaha and TAMA have nice hihat stands.  It's your turn do research.  Can you handle the task? LOL

...by the way, I'm in the same process myself.  See the rack in my Avatar pic'??  It's way too bulky and although it's great....I should've got stands.  I can already hear juSe and j_kay...."I told you so."  :-[ :-\ ;D

....so I'm also researching for stands for the kit at church but I'm keeping everything there Pearl.  That's just me though.....as jhaynes would say...."just do you." LOL
