Tiger GST35 Guitar Footstool, Height Adjustable Folding Footrest for Classical, Acoustic Electric Guitar - Black

Product Information

What I’ve noticed is that my use of a footstool largely depends on the height of the chair. If the chair is a little higher than most, then I like to use a footrest. Otherwise, I usually make do without one. Some footstools will take more abuse than others. And it’s always nice to know that your footrest isn’t going to break if you sneeze in its general direction. The use of footstool alleviates this for you. The footstool does all the work for you; raising your guitar so you can play better and for longer.

If you are still not sure what a guitar footstool is, then here is the answer. A guitar footstool is a small device where you place your foot and it helps you elevate your leg as to position the guitar in the proper playing place. How much space do you have? Bar stools don’t take up a ton of room, but a collapsible guitar stool is probably a better option if you’re right on space. Will you break it down for storage, or will it stay out as a permanent piece of furniture? How, um, big are you? That last question is a big one. Again, you probably want the padded seat and something with nonslip rubber feet. These guitar stools are great because they can also double as seats around your house — especially at a bar! Taylor Brown Logo Barstool – 24″ Guitar thrones are guitar stool royalty. Drummers think they have the market cornered on thrones? They do not. Most if not all footstools are adjustable to varying degrees. Some are fully adjustable, meaning you can use them at a height of your choosing. Others have four or six (or another number) of preset height settings you can choose from.The most basic, proper guitar stool is just a platform you sit on to play guitar. A chair. A bench. A stool. But, not just any chair will do.

I figured out that the easiest way to find out where the guitar position feels most comfortable is to adjust a guitar strap while standing up. You would then just keep the strap even when you are sitting and that way you don’t lose the guitar’s position. In an ideal world, guitar chairs will do that for hours at a time with ease and comfort. While all the guitar chairs on this list are superb, there is a subjective element that makes them the best for you. These situational questions bridge the gap between “excellent” and “best.” And they’re questions you’ll need to answer before you know which stool is best. With that in mind, footstools are inexpensive, so replacing one is never going to cost you a king’s ransom.

Slippery slope posture: Because this is a natural and intuitive position to be in, it often can go from bad to worse. On the other hand, what I do like is that you don’t have to elevate your foot in any way, which to me is slightly more comfortable than having a footrest. Having said that, I would recommend a footstep over both alternatives. Conclusion

They solve one issue caused by footstools – hip pain caused by having your feet at different heights. We agreed that I would get the very best guitar stool I could afford from that day forward. I’ve had a few over the years, but they tend to fall into one of three categories. So, of the best guitar stools, which one is best for you? I’ll start by saying that if you are a classical guitar player, a footstool is a very useful device and it is a necessary tool for you to develop the right technique. The YIFAN Guitar Cushion is a pretty solid choice as an alternative for a footrest. Made out of a sponge covered in PU leather, the YIFAN Cushion is very comfortable and is a great fit for all people. Cuts off circulation in your right arm: Your right arm is doing a fair amount of effort to keep the guitar in place and so you may experience (like I do) a loss of circulationNot everyone is comfortable playing at the same height, so we’d venture to guess height adjustability is critical, even if you don’t need all the settings in the world. The footstool can be a great addition that pushes you in that direction and it is really helpful that you can get top-quality footstools at very low prices. So go out there, my friend and look for your favorite footstool and get ready to experience playing with a whole new level of control and relaxation. No more or less suction cup release than any other support I've tried. Keep them aligned and wash and dry them gently occasionally, and they'll stay put. When you start looking at supports that don't use suction cups, they begin to get very expensive.

Another option for those who are looking for a more stylish guitar footstool comes from Bnineteenteam. This is another model made of wood, and it is beautiful.A great quality guitar stool not only makes playing guitar easier — it actually helps you become a better player. That’s a necessary condition. Other than that, some of the features that can be found on a guitar footstool are the materials it was made of, how sturdy or light it is, and how easy they are to carry around (this is important especially if you play out often).
