ABSTRACT:
An upright first tubular member is provided including base structure at its lower end for support from a horizontal surface. A second tubular member is slidably telescoped in the first tubular member and includes an upper end projecting above the upper end of the first tubular member. A lower centrally apertured and upwardly facing cymbal is mounted from the upper end of the second tubular member for universal canting relative thereto and an upstanding support rod is slidably received through the second tubular member and projects upwardly through the lower cymbal and above the upper end of the second tubular member. An upper downwardly facing cymbal is mounted on the upper end of the rod above and opposing the lower cymbal and structure is connected between the first tubular member and the rod yieldingly biasing the rod and the upper cymbal toward a static upper position spaced above the lower cymbal. Foot operable structure is operatively connected between the first and second tubular members and is operative to variably stationarily longitudinally position the second tubular member relative to the first tubular member, whereby the static vertical spacing between the central areas of the cymbals may be variably adjusted. Further, foot treadle structure is operatively connected between the first tubular member and the rod for selectively and variably downwardly displacing the rod, and thus the upper cymbal, relative to the lower cymbal.
