About This Item
The Latin Percussion LP592B-X is the LP Claw, a rim-mounted percussion mounting system that gives drummers and percussionists a fast, secure, and repositionable way to add cowbells, tambourines, jam blocks, and other LP mountable percussion instruments to any drum kit without the bulk, expense, or stage footprint of an additional stand. The LP Claw is built around a core philosophy that has driven Latin Percussion's hardware design: every stand that can be eliminated from a drummer's setup is a win. The LP Claw replaces the need for a separate percussion stand by clamping directly and firmly to the rim of any existing drum in the kit, positioning the mounted instrument exactly where the drummer needs it without any additional floor hardware or setup time. The LP592B-X is constructed from an LP exclusive, proprietary plastic blend that has been specifically formulated to deliver strength and durability that rivals traditional metal clamping hardware while remaining significantly lighter and more compact. This proprietary material is not the brittle or soft plastic found in budget mounting hardware but a carefully engineered structural blend that provides the rigidity needed to hold a mounted instrument steady under the repeated physical impact of drumming without cracking, flexing, or loosening over time. The spring-loaded jaw of the LP Claw is the component that grips the drum rim. The spring mechanism allows the jaw to be opened easily with one hand, positioned over any standard drum rim, and then released to clamp securely onto the rim without requiring any tightening of a screw or knob. This makes the LP592B-X genuinely fast to install and remove, which is particularly valuable for touring drummers who set up and tear down the same kit configuration every night and need reliable hardware that behaves consistently. One of the most practically significant features of the LP592B-X is its ratcheting system, which addresses a problem that has frustrated drummers using rim-mounted percussion holders for years. Without a locking mechanism, the joint between the claw and the rod arm can rotate freely even after the wing screw is tightened, meaning that the mounted instrument gradually drifts out of the optimal playing position during a performance. The LP592B-X's ratcheting system prevents this entirely by locking the angle of the mounted instrument at any chosen position, ensuring that a cowbell or tambourine positioned at the perfect playing angle stays exactly there through an entire set without drifting. The LP592B-X includes the 3/8-inch diameter Z-rod and LP's forged eye-bolt mounting assembly, giving the drummer everything needed to mount any LP percussion instrument with a standard 3/8-inch mounting hole immediately out of the box. The Z-shaped profile of the rod allows the mounted instrument to be positioned close to the drum for a compact setup or extended further away for easier playing access. At 0.97 lbs, the LP592B-X provides solid and confidence-inspiring mass without adding unnecessary weight to the kit. Backed by Latin Percussion, the LP592B-X is a smart, compact, and well-engineered mounting solution for any drummer who wants to expand their kit without expanding their stage footprint.
