I have playing more lately and my rear end and my lower back is not taking the load very well. (old guy) I am looking at getting me a new throne, any suggestions on which one would help this old guy out. Thanks Falling Do

Have you ever tried one that has the backrest? This might help with the lower back pain...

Cheers

I use a pork pie bicycle throne that thing rules. Nice and padded most comfortable seat in the house. One with a back rest is worth looking into tho for the extra support back there

Give a tractor style seat a try, this is of course a Porkpie, roc n soc makes one also.

I had the same problem...got the Roc n Soc throne and the situation is much better. I do wish I had gotten the back rest too. Maybe soon.

I was thinking about getting a roc-n-soc, I have heard some guys saying they are really nice. You guys using this type would know. I`m not sure how to say this, but man it looks like "the boys" are in harms way. So to speak. I just wanted to hear your guy feedback before I give up them C-Notes. Thanks Guys

Well, my "boys" have never complained so I guess they are happy with the Roc N Soc. They certainly don't get as sweaty as they did with my old round throne.

I actually bought just the seat portion of the RnS from Guitar Center...they sell it either complete with base or just the seat. The mounting hole fit nicely on the base of my old throne. I then sold the round seat on ebay to recoop some of the cost.

I purchased Roc-N-Soc throne a few days ago and It is the most comfortable throne that "the boys" and I have ever sat on. Thanks for suggestions. Tommy
