Dnj Senior Member Registered: 09/21/00 Posts: 43707	I have noticed looking at different videos, pictures, etc of arranger players and it amazes me how HIGH they sit in the seat when playing. personally I could NEVER sit that high. For me I Like to sit very low with my Arms & Thighs perfectly Horizontal, NOT angled down toward the keys in any way. I guess it's a personal comfort thing ....works for me especially after 4 hrs in the saddle. Attachments

I prefer to be higher ... my stand and 'throne' are set quite a bit higher than yours ... also I prefer the 'look' more ... But it's all personal preference ...no right or wrong - except for the 'ergonomics' ... BTW ... that's a pretty 'dressed up' crowd for an afternoon gig ...

travlin'easy Senior Member Registered: 12/08/02 Posts: 15593 Loc: Forest Hill, MD USA	Tony, I believe the height of the seat is 30 inches, and mine is fully adjustable. I'm usually just about six inches shorter than standing height, depending on how I adjust it - you'll get to try it out next month.
