I need to purchase a good quality comfortable drummer's throne not to exceed a $200 price range give or take $10. Any durable good choices to choose from? Thanks for the tips.

I think throne preference is a personal thing. You got to try it and see
how it feels and fit your butt. I owned a throne and seldom times use it
most of the time I pull a chair or something.

$200 is way too much for a "throne", thrones are more for drummers IMO, a good bongocero just needs a quality seat, I got one for like $45-50 off of musiciansfriend, anyways a bongocero doesn't spend all of his time sitting down, most stand up to play the campana...

That's basically wht I have a $50 or something seat that I bought at Mars years ago and use it more to play congas.

Yea that's pretty much what you need, something to sit on & get the job done, I believe mine is from a company named "sound percussion" .. I've even used chairs at a couple of gigs like u mentioned earlier..

Saludos, A throne is the way to go. Sometimes a chair is too low thus affecting your performance,also a throne is more profesional and you came move side to side while playing . I have and old one made by Lp, at least has a sticker with that logo unless somebody put it on. A cheap one does not have enough cushion and really hurt after playing for long plus may not hold if you are too fat . Beware thrones need to be decontaminated from time to time because they become infected with ASS perfume . Here is a photo of my.


Musician friend have one made by Sound Percussion, Embroidered Drum Throne and is only $89.00 with excellent reviews.

Here is a solid throne, portable and cheap plus it can be used as a weapon
(amanza guapo)as shown many times in profesional wrestling in case things
get ugly at the gig. None Better!

Gracias a RitmoBoriqua, bOngO, and especially that last hilarious thread by Caballo! I couldn't stop laughing after reading that one! I'll search around and try to get the best seat that would be durable enough for me. I think a regular chair wouldn't do it for me because I'm short in stature and feel uncomfortable seated so high up. Thank you all for your views. Peace and Happy New Year.
