Gibraltar 5608 Drum Throne

I use this as a keyboard player, not a drummer, and I'm not a heayweight, and what I'm after is a lightweight but sturdy seat - and this is a pretty good one. It seems to me that I wear out stools faster than drummers do, so it may be that keyboard players place stresses on drum thrones for which they weren't designed. Or maybe it's just my poor posture. Anyway, the normal modes of failure are in the 'memory lock' arrangement (slipping) and the head post of the seat (loosening) - but so far this has done good service without any signs of wear in either of these areas. It's a bit heavier than the last few stools I've worn through but it looks like it'll last a little longer. Definitely worth a try.
