Gravity Touring series 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. The solid metal knobs are unlosable to ensure that the stands survive the hard conditions of touring 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, with incredibly quick tightening of the easy-grip, triangular tightening sleeve.
