The drum throne is a fairly basic one, I have used it for a couple of months together with my new 6/4 Cc tuba. I had difficulties finding a good position on regular chairs, so I decided to try a throne. So far - success! I don´t miss the backrest, and I can position myself quite comfortably.
The tuba stand is a Hercules DS553B stand, I have strapped some rubber bands around for better friction, but I am looking for a better and more permanent solution, maybe a bicycle inner hose, split and glued to the stand.
The throne and the stand give me a very good and comfortable playing position, no problems with back pain or stiffness in the... rear quarters
I have also bought myself a suitcase for all my equipment, the new stand is unfortunately a bit too big to fit in, but I carry it as a separate item.
Hope this was helpful!
