Stack Cymbals with This Clever Lift

Leave it to Ludwig to bring modern engineering to the world of drum hardware. The Ludwig LAP3S8 Scissor Lift cymbal holder bends and twists cymbals into the perfect playing position. The LAP3S8 is great for stacking — its integrated clamp fits standard 12.7mm rods and arms, saving you a stand while still offering uncompromising playability. Ludwig's Aerodyne tilters on both the boom and cymbal joints lock in any playing angle you desire. If you want to save a stand and simplify your setup next time you play out, Sweetwater drummers recommend popping the Ludwig LAP3S8 Scissor Lift on your kit.

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Awesome

This is one versatile little cymbal holder! It attached to either my floor tom leg or on my boom arm and adds an extra color to my setup(in my case a china). I love Atlas hardware!

BEST IDEA EVER!

I wish I had know about these when they came out.
I could have saved a lot of money.
I have this arm holding my ride cymbal. Mounted off my floor tom I dig the clean look.

Ludwig LAP3S8 Atlas Pro Scissor Lift cymbal mount

I bought 2 in 2018 and out fitted my Ludwig kit which I take out to gig with with them. No more cymbals stands and I love it. I should get a commission I talk this accessories up all the time. LOVE IT. For the drummers that are tired of lugging around all this cymbal stand stuff this is your solution! ONLY WAY TO DO IT . It is a much a smaller foot print on stage.

Ludwig Atlas Scissor Lift

Great! I wanted to eliminate my stands and these were the ticket. These will go on any 12.7mm rod. Lucky for me, I have 2 Gretsch kits which already use 12.7mm hardware so this was an easy decision. Paired with the Atlas Lugs and a 12.7mm L-rod, I was able to mount this to my floor tom. I put 2 of these on the base drum tom mount coming out of the bass drum with the 12" tom mounted on the Ludwig Atlas Arch. No stands other than my hi-hat and snare stands. A very nice option for a small minimalistic setup!

Excellent product: versitile, strong, infinitely adjustable, practical, and space-saving.

I employ 4 Ludwig LAP3S8 Atlas Scissor Lift Cymbal Holders in conjunction with Ludwig PM0048 Atlas Series Single Tom Clamps to minimize the number of tripod stands needed for my large double set of DW & Ludwig drums. I believe them a better solution for my needs than using numerous tripod stands or a large, bulky, difficult-to-assemble-and-move drum rack system. Small in size, yet very strong and very adjustable, these articulated extension arms are versatile, take little space and easily removed and replaced when a memory clamp is used with them. My experience convinces me that Ludwig's Atlas accessories are very well-designed and better-made that the top-of-the-line accessories of most other drum equipment manufacturers.
