A bass drum spur system has a pivot assembly and a spur leg assembly. The pivot assembly has a spur hub removably attachable to a rim of a drum and a hub cover attached to the spur hub. The hub cover has a passageway and a circumferential slot formed through a sidewall of the passageway. The circumferential slot has first and second notches at respective opposite ends of the slot. A release button is axially slidable within the passageway of the hub cover and a spring is disposed in the passageway and biases the release button in a direction away from the spur hub. The spur leg assembly has a post fixedly attached to the release button for movement therewith, wherein the post is movable between engagement with the first notch and the second notch by pressing the release button in a direction toward the spur hub and rotating the post along the circumferential slot.

The disclosure provides a support body, an attachment, and a support method. The support body is in an annular shape for supporting an attachment on a head of a drum and includes a body part in an annular shape configured to be able to directly or indirectly support the attachment, wherein the attachment is configured to be supportable via the body part by making a lower end part of the body part be supported by an edge part of the head.

A percussion instrument mount includes a base that supports a percussion instrument in a playing position. The percussion instrument mount also includes a swing arm that is coupled to the percussion instrument, and is also coupled to the base via a joint such that the swing arm rotates about the joint from an equilibrium position in response to a playing impact on the percussion instrument. The percussion instrument mount still further includes a playing impact energy absorber that provides a restoring force to the swing arm so as to return the swing arm to the equilibrium position.

Cymbal mounting systems, devices, components, accessories and related methods are provided. The mounting systems mount a cymbal on a mounting post. The systems include a cymbal mount comprising a sleeve portion elongated along a length configured to extend through a mounting aperture of the cymbal, and comprising a top portion, a bottom portion, and an inner cavity extending from the bottom end along at least a portion of the length configured to mount on the mounting post of the cymbal stand. An outer surface of the sleeve portion varies in maximum cross-sectional size along the length thereof. The systems also include at least one resilient support ring comprising an inner through hole of a cross-sectional size that is smaller than at least a portion of that of the outer surface of the sleeve portion such that the support ring applies a compressive force thereto when mounted thereon.

The present disclosure relates to outdoor musical instruments configured to replicate the appearance of a mushroom and to withstand prolonged exposure to the environment. The musical instrument is made up of at least a metal dish mounted to a weather-resistant support post. The metal dish is mounted to the top of the support post, and the bottom surface of the metal dish is separated from the top end of the support post by a non-metal isolator. The musical instrument is configured to produce a note that sustains when the top surface of the metal dish is struck by a mallet.

A handheld bell music instrument for whirl sound effect is described that includes multiple disc shaped bells that connect to and are fixed at a location on the rod. The bells of the bells are rung to produce a pitch and the rod is used to move the bell music instrument for whirl sound effect in space. The movement of the ringing bells produces a whirling sound effect by their movement relative to a static audience.

An acoustic shield system is described that is suitable for musical performances. In one example, a side wall is configured to surround a portion of an edge of a cymbal opposite a percussionist to reflect sound back toward the cymbal and toward the percussionist. The side wall has a top edge above the cymbal and a bottom edge below the cymbal. A substantially flat top plate is attached to the top edge of the side wall and extends from the side wall over and across the center of the cymbal. A substantially flat bottom plate is attached to the bottom edge of the side wall and extends from the side wall under and across the center of the cymbal. The bottom plate is parallel to the top plate. The bottom plate and the top plate are spaced to accommodate regular movement of the cymbal when struck.

A portable drum kit is disclosed. The disclosed drum kit comprising a base; musical instruments comprising one or more drums and at least one cymbal to be fitted on the base; one or more vertical columns fixed to the base to support at least one of the musical instruments at; one or more rod members detachably coupled to the one or more musical instruments; and at least one pair of modular clamps adapted to enable fitment of the least one of the one or more drums and the at least one cymbal to the vertical columns. The modular clamps allow movement of the musical instruments between an collapsed position in which the drums and the cymbal are placed closer to each other, and a deployed position in which the drums and the cymbal are placed at desired positions to allow a percussionist to use the drum kit.

A quick-release clamp for releasably attaching an instrument, in particular a percussion instrument, to a stand includes a passage opening for the stand, at least one movable clamping jaw for changing a cross-section of the passage opening, an operating element for influencing a position of the clamping jaw, and a housing. In the rest position of the at least one clamping jaw there is a form-fit connection between the at least one clamping jaw, the operating element and the housing to prevent the movement of the clamping jaw.

A stand adjustment device has a tripod-connecting member, a connecting seat, a distal clamping plate, a boom-connecting tube, a locking shaft, and a manual operating member. The connecting seat is rotatably located around the tripod-connecting member. The distal clamping plate is detachably attached to a side of the connecting seat. One end of the locking shaft is movably disposed in the boom-connecting tube. The boom is slidably mounted through the boom-connecting tube and the locking shaft. The locking shaft is slidably mounted through the boom-connecting tube, the distal clamping plate, and the connecting seat such that the boom-connecting tube is rotatable relative to the connecting seat. The manual operating member and the locking shaft are configured to clamp the boom-connecting tube, the distal clamping plate, and the connecting seat therebetween into a locked condition.
