I just snagged a 1967 keystone badge Acrolite that came with the carrying case and Atlas stand. The seller said that the stand was "orchestra height" or something to that effect, meaning that it adjusted high enough to play standing up.
The snare is in great shape and sounds good, and I like the stand but it doesn't go low enough to play sitting at a kit. Were there two versions of the Atlas stands with one maybe having a longer post on the upper section? Would this be a rare version of the stand that I might want to sell so I can replace it with a normal version or would cutting a couple of inches off the post not really devalue it at all?
Thanks.
