Detail 01
Short boom length
Less leverage than a full boom, so it stays put with less counterweight and takes up far less floor space.

GibraltarShort Mic Boom Arm
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A short boom arm for positioning a microphone off an existing stand. For close-miking drums and cabinets where a full-length boom is in the way.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Close-miking snare or tom without a stand in the drummer's path
- Getting a mic into a tight spot near a kick port
- Tucking a mic under cymbals in a crowded kit
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Overhead or room miking that needs long reach
- Anyone without a stand or clamp to mount it on
- Heavy large-diaphragm mics that need more support
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Boom arm only
No base, no mic clip guaranteed. You mount it to a stand or rack clamp you already have.
Detail 03
Threaded mic end
Standard mic thread is expected, so most clips screw on — but adapters exist for a reason. Check thread size.
Detail 04
Under $40
Cheap enough to buy several for a multi-mic drum setup rather than one at a time.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Stand or clamp is separate — this is the arm alone
- 02Verify the mounting thread matches your stand and mic clip
- 03Short arms limit angle options; test placement before a session
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this include a stand?
No. It is the boom arm only. You attach it to a stand or rack clamp you already own.
02Is a mic clip included?
Do not count on it. Plan to use a clip you already have and confirm the threads match.
03Why choose short over a full boom?
Short arms fit inside a drum kit and around cabinets where a long boom would collide with hardware or the player.
04Can it hold a heavy condenser?
Light dynamics and small condensers suit it best. Heavy mics on any boom need careful balancing.
