Anyone know the name of this thing and what it's worth? I have three of those clamps in front of the straight bar.

I sold two of these bars + 10 clamps on ebay recently for $210.
Something I had paid $500 16 years ago.
It was not that easy to sell.

Yeah, that's the thing. I have no idea how much I paid for it and don't even know the model number to look it up online. I think the clamps are over $40 each?

Considering what the new Yamaha racks go for, I really couldn't see you getting that much money for it. But if you aren't using it, and it's taking up space, anything is better then nothing.

Fire off a craigslist ad and see what comes, no harm no foul if nobody responds.

Well, I was planning on trading it and a few other small things for a DW 9500 high-hat. If the store gives me 100 bucks for the bar I did ok?

I dug out my old bill of 1993 and found out I paid 650$ for the racks.
So I sold 2 bars which had two universal clamps each + 6 more clamps with memory locks for 210$.

Part #:
Bar with 2 clamps/memory locks + logo: RS100-2
Universal open clamp: OC-910U
Right-angle open clamp: OC-920R
Memory clamp: MC-318

I think 100$ for your bar+3 clamps is fair.
Hope that helps

At least I know what's it's called if I decide to sell it.

Thanks again.

No thanks. I'm not interested in selling the bar over the internet. I posted here to get some information and an fair asking price. I will keep the bar until I can get what I want for it.
