ABSTRACT:
A device for locating and adjusting a set of cymbals includes a tri-lobic pedestal connected with a support frame of a cymbal device via a stanchion. The tri-lobic pedestal has a tubular post longitudinally extends substantially from a top face thereof. A resilient pad is mounted around the tubular post and rests on the top face of the tri-lobic pedestal. The resilient pad has three wings pieces formed therewith, each wing piece having a cambered upper surface for supporting a lower cymbal of the cymbal device. A tripod is mounted around the tubular post and between the resilient pad and a lower cymbal of the cymbal device to secure the resilient pad on the tri-lobic pedestal. The tri-lobic pedestal further defines a couterbore in the top face thereof and communicating with a screw hole thereof for receiving a nut in a non-rotatable condition, such that a screw extends therethrough and threadedly engages with the nut. When the screw is turned, it urges against one of the wings pieces of the resilient pad, thereby tilting the resilient pad and the lower cymbal for adjustment.
