New Drum Throne Whats Good?

[Cherri]

Thanks Cherri,
I know the DW stuff i've seen is kinda pricey.
How much is the DW compared to the Roc's?

Google can be your best friend to search. If you can go to local  music store and do the Comfort test that's the best thing.

the new pearl roadster thrones are nice as well as the ergo riders from tama.

Thanks everyone for the info.
Until recently I have not thought
about DW for thrones.  Now I
will have to check them out along
with the TAMA Ergo.  Roc-n-Soc
is what I'm leaning toward though.
I noticed last night in my Gibraltar
catalog, that theirs are made by Roc.
Does anyone have one of these?
Are they they same but with the Gibraltar
name?
Help a brother out, Please
I'm not trying to let the FAM do all the
work, just gthering info.
I LUV this site.  It has been a GREAT
blessing.  Keep up Gods work.

Not all the Gibralters are are made by Roc-n-Soc only the red ones ....

Hey Tight, I have the older style Tama swingstar set.
I know about tama drums and equip. just nothing about
the ergo thone some have mentioned.  I'm planning on
going this weekend to check out some stuff I need, cymbals
metronomes or drum machine, and seat, but just wanted some
ideas as to which seats to look at since there are many to weed through.
Thanks

For Him, DJ

Gotcha!!

[djdrummer]

Thanks Sabe!!
I actually was leaning towards getting a red one.
since my kit is a Tama smokey chrome, and the
church is in burgandy and grey, I thought it would
look pretty good.  Also I have a friend that owns a
small music store where I get 95% of my stuff.
He can order the Gibraltar, plus he takes at least
30% off retail.  I'm getting anxious to try these
saturday.  I've been not playing for a couple of
weeks due to an ancle injury playing B-ball.
Ready to get back and apply what I've picked
up from the LGM Family.

Hey Family!
I went to Guitar Center this past saturday and tried out the
thrones mentioned.  The Pork Pie as mentioned was too soft,
but also the Tama was not soft enough.  The Roc-n-Soc was
nice, but I ended up getting one that looked almost identical to
it except the price.  Has anyone heard of Sound Percussion?
Anyway, it is very comfortable, and easy to adjust.  It was marked
at $171.00, I walked out paying $95 flat.  I'm happy with the decision,
and want to thank everyone for their input.

I use/own a Sound Percussion. It is Guitar Center's white label/store brand. By looking at the clamp it looks like Gibralter may have made it for them. I have had mine about 9 months and it is great/comfortable.

It is not quite tall enough for me though. I plan to get a Roc-N-Soc Extended (32"). I need to sit at least 27.5" from the floor for my ankles to move freely. I get by now but 27.5" is my ideal.

Pork Pie Pork Pie Pork Pie!  The round seats are very comfortable plus they got some exotic styles and colors!

[djdrummer]

haydenka,
I agree the Sound Percussion does look like the Gibraltar.
I looked in my catalog, and it's the same.  As for the Pork
Pie, they seem to come only in the round style and I don't
think a back can be added.  I'm still looking to see if there is
something better, but if there is not i'm still happy.
