I bought this after getting slightly sick of needing so many microphone stands and having to deal with stands that would not hold the weight of a Shure SM58 or SM57... I ended up using it on my floor tom (16") and have not had any problems. As is to be expected with K&M, this is solid stuff! I was surprised to see how heavy the clip was but it's nice to see such little plastic and so much metal on a purchase. Only bad thing I could say is it doesn't go very far back, if you're using SM58s or SM57s, the mic, once screwed on, will end up reaching quite far into your snare/tom/whatever you choose to clip the mount on. This is why I ended up using it for my floor tom... Other than that this is a great quality clip that does what is says on the box, keep in mind a microphone clip is not included, only the rig that will hold it is. Would recommend.
