Great clamp for attaching mic straight to a cymbal stand. The only downside is that there's no 5/8" thumbwheel to position the mic holder the way you want. Yes Gibraltar advertise this clamp with attached gooseneck, but I never use such - goosenecks don't hold position with heavy mics, or especially if the drums are on shaky drum riser. And 5/8" thumbwheels are not that common and easy to find - the only option is the K&M Thumbwheel 5/8", and if it's not in stock... I'd love if the guys from Gibraltar change the thread with the more popular and used these days 3/8", there's way more adapters for it. That's why I put one star less.
