Tours and events often operate under hard conditions and time pressures. Microphone stands are thrown around and not generally treated gently. That's why Gravity Touring series telescopic boom microphone stands are built to be extremely sturdy. Made with especially strong steel tubing with three folding feet. The base and boom mount are made of indestructible die-cast zinc. Theboom has an adjustment range of 51 to 88 cm. The screw-on counterweight has a specially designed locking nut for microphone clips. The solid metal knobs are unlosable, to ensure that the stands withstand the rigours of the road for longer. The microphone stands are also faster to set up and take down. Turning the locking screw just 3/4 quickly snaps the boom into place. Height adjustment is just as easy and extremely quick via the easy-grip, triangular tightening sleeve.
