Mapex Introduces Feature-Packed 700 Series Hardware

December 30, 2008

Mapex USA announced the release of a new series of drum hardware. The new 700 Series is a feature-rich line of chrome-plated hardware that is both light in weight and extremely durable. The Series includes a bass drum pedal, double bass drum pedal, hi-hat stand, boom stand, straight cymbal stand, snare stand and double tom stand.

All 700 Series models feature an improved, clamp-style memory lock design, ergonomically designed wing nuts, newly redesigned rubber feet, double braced legs and multi-tiered tubular construction with molded slip-proof nylon inserts.

The B700 Boom Stand and C700 cymbal stands are completely re-engineered with several new features. Mapex's popular OS Cymbal Accentutors have been replaced with new Multi-sustain Cymbals Felts that allow the player to use any combination of felt and plastic for a more precise level of cymbal sustain. In addition a new Super-Glide stepless cymbal tilter allows unlimited positioning and the new Acculock Tilter handle holds the system tight and can be conveniently positioned out of the way.

Mapex 700 Series hardware will be shipped with Mapex's new Meridian Series Maple and Birch drum sets.

MSRP for the B700 Boom Stand is $143.99 and the C700 Straight Stand is $145.99. The S700 Snare Stand is $116.99, the P700 Double Chain Bass Drum Pedal is $167.99 and the Double Pedal P700TW is $541.99. The H700 Hi-Hat Stand is priced at $183.99 and the TS700 Double Tom Stand is $218.99.

Like all Mapex hardware, the 700 Series carries an unprecedented five-year warranty.
