The Yamaha CS865 is a pro-grade boom cymbal stand from Yamaha’s 800-series hardware: solid, smooth to position, and built to stay put on stage or in the studio. A step-free (gearless) tilter and a boom “clipping” mechanism make angle tweaks precise while protecting the arm from scratches. Double-braced legs with large rubber feet keep your cymbal stable, even under heavy playing.

Why Choose the CS865?
If you need a reliable boom that won’t drift or wobble, the CS865 balances tour-ready strength with smooth adjustability. The step-free tilter dials in exact cymbal angles (great for rides and crashes at awkward reaches), and the double-braced base handles hard hitters without creeping. Yamaha’s long-running hardware design keeps your setup consistent gig to gig.
