gypsyjazzer Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 (edited) Hi fellow Basschat'ers-To those of you who play sitting down. I'm looking for a comfortable chair---adjustable height--back rest--fold up. Does such a chair exist? Any recommendations? Many thanks.

JPJ Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Stagg do a good folding stool that I've used for sitty down acoustic gigs I think I got mine from Thomann? http://www.staggmusic.com/en/products/view/MT300BK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassace Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I use a Koenig and Meyer stool from Thomann. It's got a very comfortable seat and has an optional backrest. I don't use this because it's just another item of metal rattling around in the motor. https://www.thomann.de/gb/km_stehhilfe_14045.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilp Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I have a K&M stool that came from Thomann which I find excellent. I don't use the backrest, but now I've been reminded of its existence I might try it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philparker Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I Use this stool [url="https://www.thomann.de/gb/km_stehhilfe.htm"]https://www.thomann.de/gb/km_stehhilfe.htm[/url] , but I don't use the back rest - it is quite heavy and I have to cart it around once or twice a week, but I have tried others that are more cumbersome and don't fold down as neat and not as comfortable - I fit mine into a gig bag, which is a Gear4Music 12" Speaker bag and that can fit everything I need and more including orchestral music stand and all accessories.

NickA Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) Bloke who sits next to me at orchestra has a k&m, bike saddle style seat in memory foam = very comfy. Adjustable foot rest = useful. I have one of these [url="https://www.bassbags.co.uk/product/double-bass-stool-with-back-rest/."]https://www.bassbags...ith-back-rest/.[/url] Whick is ok and was much cheaper, but was actually designed for playing keyboards ... Seat padding bit soft, foot rest bit high, never use the back rest. Sturdy tho. K&m if you can afford it.
