A week or so ago there was a thread about the Soundseat.....so I looked into one on their homepage and decided to give them a call.

http://www.soundseat.com

Here's the first cool surprise, the phone rings and a human answers it.....J.R. one of the owners no less. Right away he said let me call you back on my money. Well my couple of Q's about the chair I was interested in turned into about an hour or so chat with him. Besides being a chair maker he's a drummer (but I tried to not hold that against him)

Anyway after talking back and forth as to my needs and could he / would he do this or that to a chair for me, to which the answer was no problem on all of it, I ordered one.

I need it to serve multi purpose, guitar, Stick and keyboard, so I ordered the guitar chair with the large foot ring.

On to the chair....if there is a finer leather, I haven't seen it, nor better workmanship on it. I got the mid back with wheels on it. The back hits right in the perfect spot for support. The best though is the seat itself.....this is hard to explain other than it hardly feels like I'm sitting on any one spot on my backside, so the comfort is excellent. Also with the saddle sort of shape to it, the seat doesn't hit the legs to tire them out either, from the pressure.

JR even called me once he saw it was delivered to make sure I liked it and all was ok.

So....even if you'd want an excellent desk chair/gig chair combo the soundseat is killer and reasonable in price. There's all different models in different price ranges.

In short, I doubt you will find a nicer guy to do business with or a music chair of this quality at twice the price. I went and sat in one of the rocsoc or whatever they're called at GC before I bought this one, and I do not think there is any comparison in quality and comfort IMO.

Your butt will thank you for one of the Soundseats....trust me.
