A percussion instrument lift comprising two end-lifts connected by a support rod. Each end-lift comprises a frame, a lifting frame coupled to the frame, and a lift extending between the frame and the lifting frame. Two platforms are adjustably mounted to the lifting frame of the end-lift. The platforms can be transversely slid on the lifting frame so as to accommodate an instrument of varying widths. A fastener can secure the positioning of the platforms with respect to the lifting frame.
