ABSTRACT:
High hat spring tension adjustment mechanism including a spring biased shaft for operating a cymbal, a vertically relatively movable inner tube around the shaft, a spring connected between the shaft and the inner tube variable in spring tension with shifting of the inner tube and a stationary outer tube around the inner tube. Engagement members at the inner tube extend out through slots in the outer tube. Raising or lowering of the engagement members adjusts the spring tension. The outer tube supports an adjustment member for adjusting the height of the engagement members extending from the inner tube. Steps on the adjustment members adjust the height of the engagement members which adjusts the spring tension on the shaft. The height of the engagement members also provides a visible indication of the spring tension on the operating rod.
