Not just the throw-off, the entire Swivomatic line of hardware represents what is still to this day some of the most well-built, well-designed and -useful- (utilitarian) drum hardware ever made.
I agree. Not much else I can think of that is equal to, or better than the old Swivo stuff. Rock-solid, reliable hardware. Toms stay where you put them!

i'm smiling and agreeing
Bop iT / Til U Drop iT.Problem for me is that I buy them and then can't bear to part with them. Made this video to sell the drum - and changed my mind. Oh well.

John, I just also want to poke a finger at the Acrolite before someone else brings it up. More point than poke. I have owned several and have yet to get a bad one. I know the Jazzfest is a highly sought after drum, there must be a good reason for it besides Ringo.But I do believe the Rogers Swivo-Matic throw off was the absolute best made by anyone at the time, and for a long time after.
I like the Clockface version better then the later one....anyone else?
Love your vids, Trout.
Hugh
I have to agree - very cool video.
