Yamaha will be introducing the MSA-900 accessory mount and the MSCH-900 cymbal mount at the 2015 NAMM Show. The mounts, designed to attach on the side of modern high-tension marching snare drums, offer stability. Rim mounts sometimes cause cowbells, woodblocks, and cymbals to sit at awkward angles and can damage the drum’s finish, but the Yamaha mounts avoid this because they affix to the high-tension tuning rods. The MSA-900 has an MSRP of $118, and the MSCH-900 has an MSRP of $90.
