The Iron Works Tour Series MS456STBK low-profile telescoping boom stand with tripod legs boasts the same innovations and solid construction characteristics of its taller sibling, the MS456LBK. Tama’s rough and ready "standard" boom stand is ideal for miking drums or amplifiers, or in any situation where lower height mic positioning is needed.

The die-cast locking thumb nut’s larger, sure-grip design allows greater leverage for faster, easier set-up and breakdown. And Iron Works’ sturdy zinc, die-cast adjustment collar will be appreciated by musicians previously burned by the performance failure of flimsy plastic collars.

A cleverly designed Latch-Lok Sleeve Insert inside the main height adjustment mechanism prevents the collar from wearing out over time—so you’ll never have to worry about endless collar turning that fails to ever tighten its grip.

Abandoning the weak standard gripping methods used by economy grade stands, the Iron Works Tour stand Cast-Grip Boom Tilter utilizes two zinc die-cast pressure pads that maximize surface gripping area to deliver optimal holding power.

A uniquely shaped tripod base and cavity cradles the boom when folded for storage—a simple detail that helps pack gear tightly. With its solid-core telescoping (telescopic is better?)iron boom arm and counterweight, Iron Works boom stands safely and securely hold heavy microphones and accessories.
