Does anyone recognize this stand? A small label that appears to say Made In Germany. Thanks!
Cymbal Stand ID???
My dad had a couple of stands like that back in the late 1970's-early 1980's. I believe they were Hohner stands. They look very similar to yours.
If I recall he didn't get too many years out of them, but he was pretty rough on hardware then......

Yup ,Hohner.
I owned a couple.
They made some nice snare stands too,but some of the set screws would strip too easily.
One great feature was a tension lever that controlled the snare basket arms.
You could flip it to release or hold the snare drum in one easy motion.
Thanks!!! PGM n Ludwig Dude...had them for years and never knew what they were. They were always a pain in the ass to adjust...LoLoLoLo

Same with the cymbal stands....the wing screws would strip out easily. I remember dad taking them to his day job on more than one occasion to have the threads drilled and re-tapped to a larger size. The man never knew the meaning of too tight, unfortunately. ;)
I was going to say that the large wing nuts look similar to the ones on my Sonor Performer stands. Hohner was the Sonor distributor so possibly there is some connection.
