Yamaha SS6 Lightweight Single-Braced Snare Stand

Yamaha SS6 Lightweight Single-Braced Snare Stand

The Yamaha SS6 Lightweight Single-Braced Snare Stand combines portable hardware with smooth snare positioning for rehearsals, recording, and live performance. Its Step Free Tilter, Tone-Enhancing Basket Rubber, ergonomic basket adjustment knob, and approximately 16.9-23.2" height range provide a flexible platform for standard snare-drum setups.

Yamaha's gearless Step Free Tilter allows continuous basket-angle adjustment instead of restricting the drum to fixed increments. Tone-Enhancing Basket Rubber incorporates an air pocket between the rubber support and basket arm to reduce vibration transfer, helping the mounted drum resonate more freely. Single-braced legs and compact tubing keep the stand manageable for frequently transported drum hardware rigs.

The Snare Basket Adjustment Knob uses an ergonomic grip and an integrated metal washer to provide smooth tightening while securing the basket. Yamaha specifies lower and upper tube diameters of approximately 0.9" and 0.8", respectively. At approximately 5.3 lb, the SS6 balances portability with the adjustment features required for everyday acoustic drum applications.
