An adjustable support for a microphone, lights, etc. includes a pair of elongated tubes in telescopic relationship and an engager carried by the inner tube for releasably engaging the interior surface of the outer tube. The engager includes an elongated wedge member vertically movable between locking and unlocking positions and a plurality of substantially rigid ball bearings dimensioned to releasably engage the interior surface of the outer tube against relative longitudinal movement of the tubes in a given direction when the wedge member is in the locking position and to enable such relative longitudinal movement of the tubes in the given direction when the wedge member is in the unlocking position.
