Randy,

Most high back pain is usually the result of posture, essentually your position in relation to the keyboard. First, a standard piano bench doesn't provide you with any support at all, and it's likely too low for performing while still maintaining good eye contact with your audiences.

I've been using the Quiklok D-749 for about two years and my upper back no longer experiences the pains you described.

It provides the correct height in relation to the keyboard so your forearms are horizontal while your biceps are vertical, which is the preferable position. It also provides much needed support for your lower back, which also takes a beating using a standard piano bench type seat. The D-749 is full adjustable and has a foot rest as well.

Cheers,

Gary
