Greatest Guitar Stool in History that isn't poop! See what I did there? Lol

[@andreriant8513]

I’ve been using Roc-N-Soc stool for years and can’t live without it 😊

[@louistorres]

Omg, I love this thing!!!!! I feel like I bought the right one for my first stool! I may have to get another one so other guitarists can sit and chill when they visit after this pandemic is over!!

[@jimmextorf7785]

Parkway is my local store, too. Tommy and Matt run a great shop.

[@louistorres]

Yeah bro, Madison is the only guy I let work on my guitars and amps! Tom and Matt are awesome guys!!

[@ValSchnitzel]

Great video! I never thought about the chairs. Whatever creates 'The path of least resistance' is huge!

[@louistorres]

Yeah man, I've never ever thought of buying one but when I tried the Badlander, I realized how comfortable I was playing on the stool they had in there. I'm sooooooo glad I have one now!! It's crazy how I've never owned one or ever taken notice as to how important having one really is.

[@ValSchnitzel]

@@louistorres I had similar experiences with certain guitars, Jackson RR V’s are just so much more comfortable for me than strats, and this is funny to me because when I was a kid and inquired about V guitars everybody told me how uncomfortable they are, but when I play them the time just flys by without me noticing.

[@HailRider]

The problem I have is that they are all too tall. I am not short, I am 6'2". But I want to be low enough to control or change my floor amp, use pedals without awkward balance, if I need to bend forward to reach something I don't want to have to bend too far. That is what you get with all "guitar stools". I have a foot stool if I need to jack one leg up. Drummer Thrones seem more appropriate. The guitar stool I have has the craddle for your guitar when you take a break but the damn thing is so high my feet barely touch the ground. I like them both firmly planted. I use a Fender GT200 amp and I COULD use the foot pedals to control some things but when searching for the sound I am wanting as well as peaking and tuning, I need to use my hand. Having a swivel seat would be nice too.

[@louistorres]

You know, I bet you can get the tallest model and throw washers or something that would add 2-3" to the height of the seat. The cushion has bolts that screw to the base, so it can definitely be done. Call them and see if they can do something to extend the height. I'm sure they can, you can't be the only guitarist that's 6'2" to make a request like that.

[@HailRider]

@@louistorres What I meant was this : So-called "guitar stools" are TOO tall. The best postition for a musician is to have the thighs parallel with the deck (floor). So-called guitar stools are way too high. My thighs are at a 45degree angle downward which makes your legs ache if you are using pedals or trying to keep time by tapping a foot. Today I just went to my music store and bought a Roc n Soc Drum Throne... it is PERFECT. Just the right height, swivels, I have good balance and can reach everything without awkward bending over guitar. I notice that Cajons on average are 18" tall...well...so are most thrones... coincidence? I think not. Definately aliens! I don't know what to do with my old guitar stool... I think I will rip the padding off of it and attach a shelf board to the seat and give it to the wife for a plant holder.

[@winterphoenix09]

Bought one a while back. You want a guitar stool? This thing rocks.

[@louistorres]

I'm glad you got one! Isn't it fucking great!! Such a great buy! Enjoy yours, bro. :)

[@keyboardwarria]

been trying to order one from sweetwater since August, still backordered

[@ttocs68]

Amazon has them, I just ordered one. and you do not have to sign for it when it comes. I love sweetwater but I hate that you have to be home to sign for stuff.

[@m...6119]

Would anyone know if you can add a backrest to the stool? I was thinking of picking up a roc n soc drum throne and adding a backrest, but I’d prefer a stool with backrest (since it would likely be taller and it would have the foot rests). Thanks!

[@louistorres]

What's up, M. They do make models that have armrests, go to their website when you get the chance. They cost a bit more but I think you'll love them. I've since gotten another.

[@m...6119]

@@louistorres 🙏

[@louistorres]

@@m...6119 I reached out to them to see if I can put armrests on the ones I have and they couldn't. It doesn't have the access to add the rear bracket that the armrests attach to. If you get one, you're going to be shocked how plush it is! :)

[@m...6119]

@@louistorres much appreciated brother. I can’t wait to try one out at my local music store.

[@m...6119]

Hey Louis, I just picked up the roc n soc stool; it’s freakin’ amazing! Thank you so much for turning me onto this great stool, it’s the most comfortable piece of equipment I’ve ever used in my life! I don’t know why I waited so long.

[@DJ33]

Louie with a message for the guitar players asses. Atta boy!! Something good came out of the badlander review.

[@louistorres]

HAHAHA!!! Yes!!!! Lol

[@dylansalcedo2797]

Hahahaahaha

[@DROID1018]

Stool sample please??? 😂😂. I used to work in a lab.

[@louistorres]

Hahahahahaha!!!!!! I just laughed out loud!!!! Lol

[@billyturk8117]

More like a drum throne which are way comfier than stools haha. One with a back would be dope. "I have a little butt, but..." Where tds at!?

[@gordonfreeman9368]

XD after you dont need to worry about which amp or guitar to play, one may start thinking about chairi! 👍

[@juujuubees379]

your missing out not getting one with back support

[@louistorres]

They have models with back support and arm rests but I'm okay with these. I don't think I'd like having a back support or armrest when I play.

[@dylansalcedo2797]

Playing on a recliner sucks!!! The arm rests always get in the way, I need to get a stool for sure, one day.

[@Vazaqin]

how's the stool while playing a flying v?

[@louistorres]

Haven't played a V since 1989. Never liked the shape, wouldn't know.

[@roscoe6937]

This is what you buy when you're waiting for new amps and pedals to come out.lol I took a trip to The Axe Palace in Walpole Massachusetts today. Place is sick. Check em out!

[@louistorres]

Hahaha! I'm not actually fond of the owner. I think that dude talks too much shit but that's because he needs to sell products, so I get it. Glad you had a good time there, lots of guys love that place.

[@roscoe6937]

@@louistorres Oh no shit. I was looking into getting some black winters installed into my esp ltd mh350. One of the dude's was saying I should try the barek nuckle nailbombs instead. Just want to try something different besides my Emgs. I have invaders in my bc rich and love em.

[@BONJOEY99]

look's comy i will have to check one out . Your so funny with sweetwater .I order a lot of stuff with them and always get the bag of candy with my order ha ha ha.

[@danthrax7407]

Ey man, that stool looks nice, I use an Ikea chair and works fine because I´m always in front of my computer, one question (sorry if you said in the video), how that works if you have a flying V or RR shape? I have a Dean Michael Schenker and It´s a pain in the ass because I need a foot stand to play it...but I use a fruit box that makes the job!!

[@louistorres]

Dan, to be honest, I don't know how it would be with a V shape, I don't own one, so I'm not sure how you'd have to hold it or how it would feel. :')

[@danthrax7407]

@@louistorres Don't worry I'll stick to my fruit box...vintage style :)

[@paulmarks5180]

imma buy thank you

Bro, I bought two of them! So when I have friends visit!

Parkway is a good store

[@louistorres]

I love that place so much. They always have great gear there.

[@richardmignacca6106]

Are your feet flat to the floor?

[@louistorres]

I can, but I usually put one foot on the high bar and my other on the lower bar. They have two sizes though, a shorter model and a taller. I now have both.

[@JohnJones22856]

What a bag of wind!
