We are pretty impressed by the Stagg GIST-300 Foldable Stool. It looks to come with a pretty solid construction. This makes the stool able to hold its own very easily under any weight.

But then, it would have been nice for the manufacturers to have this stool marked with a max weight value, though. Well, apparently, there is a “#300” marked on the stool. But no one is exactly sure what it is supposed to mean. Playing Guitar.

Is the maximum weight capacity of this stool supposed to be 300 pounds or what?

But then the good news is that customers over 300 pounds have used this stool for quite a number of years without complaints. The stool is still very sturdy and doing well.

Of course, we couldn’t, in all sincerity, get over the fact that it comes with a built-in guitar stand. That’s pretty cool if you ask us. It provides a neat and convenient way to store your acoustic or electric guitar while taking a quick break from playing.

For your comfort, the top of this stool is sturdily built and padded with a vinyl throne top.

Still, on the note of comfort, you’ll be glad to know that this stool comes foldable. Plus, it’s super lightweight. This ultimately means that you’d be able to transport and store away this guy very easily and conveniently.

And to wrap it up nicely, the stool comes at a very affordable price too. Excellent!

Pros

• Built-in guitar stand included.
• Solid construction.
• Padded vinyl throne top.
• Foldable.

Cons

• No backrest.

Why We Like It:

The first thing that caught our attention was the fact that it comes with a built-in guitar stand. Aside from that, it also comes foldable, lightweight, and reasonably priced.

This fantastic musician stool with a backrest is actually a drum throne. However, it is so versatile it can still totally work as a guitar stool.

One of the many qualities that this guitar-playing chair boasts over its peers is its size. It’s large enough to be really comfortable. Add that to the fact that it comes with a backrest, and you see why it’s easily a customer’s favorite.

Support is one feature you must, of necessity, seek out in any guitar stool. And this stool from Gibraltar offers a good deal of that. It comes with 3 sturdy legs and double-braced support. The backrest is also solid too. So, for support, this chair gets an A.

Now to a fun feature that this chair comes with, and that is its adjustability…

The way this stool is designed, you can easily set the chair to swivel or remain stationary. And everyone likes to swivel, isn’t it?

Aside from adjusting the swivel ability of the stool, you can also adjust the height. It can go as high as 2 feet and except you’re as tall as maybe Goliath, this height is generally ideal for anyone.

Pros

• Large-sized stool.
• Comes with a solid backrest.
• Adjustable.
• Swivel feature.

Cons

• The backrest isn’t adjustable and leans a bit too backward.

Why We Like It:

This thing looks very professionally built. Also, it comes with a backrest, a wide throne, and adjustability. It does come with a heftier price tag though, but then you expected that with all the nice touches, didn’t you?

We really love the versatility of this stool. It will fit almost anywhere, be it a shop, a bar, or even a music studio.

The construction on this dude is pretty solid and you can be sure it will really last.

For one, the seat is made of genuine leather. Not only does this give the seat elegance, but it also ensures that the seat lasts and gives you great comfort.

The frame comes made of steel, giving the stool a rugged rigidity. And to further ensure that this stool gives you value for your money, the frames are also chrome-plated. This means that your stool will last pretty long. And even with exposure to the elements, it won’t buck due to rust.

Also, the seat is wide which makes it pretty comfy too. The footrests are just additional features that serve to increase the comfort and convenience you stand to gain from using this particular guitar chair.

And yeah, it swivels! Yay! Plus, its legs are all protected with plastic caps so they don’t ruin your floors or get worn out. Pretty nice, right?

Pros

• Genuine leather top.
• Large-sized seat.
• Chrome-plated steel frame.
• Footrests.
• Swivel feature.

Cons

• The setup is pretty difficult.

Why We Like It:

It comes with footrests! Also, it boasts a very solid construction. Plus, the top is genuine leather which gives that unique blend of elegant and comfy. We definitely love that it comes at a friendly price tag too.

This is a super slick, truly beautiful guitar chair with back support. We absolutely love it because of how it seems like the manufacturers thought of everything. It comes with almost every feature you’re probably looking for in a guitar player chair.

First of all, it does come with a backrest. And it isn’t just any type of backrest. It is pretty well made and it comes adjustable. You’d have to admit that that’s one feature that isn’t too easy to find in guitar stools these days.

The neck yoke is adjustable and when performing, you can easily slide it under the stool.

Another feature included in this stool is the cradle or guitar stand. This will help you conveniently store your guitar when not in use. It’s designed specifically for electric and acoustic guitar models only, though.

And to top it off, this baby is foldable. Now, transporting or storing your stool will be the least of your worries. From your home to your gig or studio, you’d hardly feel a thing while moving it.

We love the solid black color of this stool, which adds to the slickness of the entire stool. Plus, it comes with a maximum weight capacity of 300 pounds.

Finally, it’s well made, so you can be sure of its durability and stability.

Pros

• Built-in guitar stand.
• Footrests.
• Adjustable neck yoke.
• Foldable.
• Sturdy support.

Cons

• It’s not as solid as a higher-end model, though.

Why We Like It:

It’s just like the Stagg but a more affordable option. We really love the fact that it comes with a solid backrest that’s also adjustable. Also, it comes with other features like a footrest and a built-in guitar stand too.

And this tall drink of water right here is the Rockville RDS40. It’s tall, it’s stunning, and it comes in a sweet black finish.

Although it is made of solid steel, Rockville still found a way to make this adjustable guitar stool really lightweight. That’s definitely something to be excited about. A sturdy stool that’s easy to lug about. Who wouldn’t want that?

The seat comes well padded and its 12-inch diameter means that you’ll have a swell time on the seat. The size is just right for you to stay comfy while playing.

Adjustability is another feature we love about this stool. You can set up this chair within a height range of 21 inches to 30.75 inches. You’d hardly need anything beyond this max height.

And talking about a max, the maximum weight capacity of this stool is 300 pounds. So, there’s hardly any sized person that this stool can’t easily support.

There is also a footrest added to this guitar chair for you to keep your legs comfy while you play. Plus, it’s rubberized so the feel is absolutely amazing.

As for setup, it’s a breeze. You do not need a tool and in a few minutes flat, you’d have this chair up and running.

Pros

• Solid construction.
• Wide, cushioned seat.
• Adjustable and removable backrest.
• Rubberized footrest.
• Fast and easy setup.
• Foldable and lightweight.

Cons

• No assembly instructions.

Why We Like It:

It’s so cushioned: the seat and the backrest. And the backrest even comes removable. We also love the fact that it is super easy to assemble and in record time too.

This is a high-quality bar stool with solid support. The steel tubing used for this chair is about an inch thick which makes it pretty sturdy. To further reinforce the tubing, each of the legs comes chrome-plated. The chrome finish gives the stool a beautiful look as well as durability.

The stool comes with 4 legs, so again support is assured. And to ensure that the legs are non-slip, they all come fitted with rubber caps. These caps also help to maintain the integrity of your floors, if you have to drag the stool around.

Although there is no footrest built into this stool, it does come with a circular ring around the legs. This ring works great as a footrest too.

The seat is where the beauty of this stool really shines. It’s so eye-catching! Embossed with the Fender logo, plus its bright red color, this stool was built for the limelight.

And it’s not just pretty, it’s comfy too. Well-padded and thick, the swiveling seat comes covered in vinyl which ensures that your seat lasts.

With its height, there’s no height or size of player this Fender 30 cannot accommodate. It just has a big seat for everyone!

Pros

• 4 legs for increased support.
• Attractive, wide seat.
• Footrest.
• Swivel feature.

Cons

• A bit expensive.

Why We Like It:

It’s so attractive. And the seat is really wide and comfy. Plus, it comes with four legs too, and anything for increased stability is very much welcome.

If you’re still in the mood for guitar chairs with back support, then you’ll be very excited to meet the On Stage DT8500 Guitar Throne.

So, first, let’s talk about the backrest for a bit. The backrest is well padded and even comes adjustable. It gives you that perfect lean-in posture so you can enjoy your play while staying in the correct posture.

You’ll find that adjusting the backrest is pretty easy. The dual tension adjustment knobs make the job pretty breezy and in no time you’ll be playing comfortably on your own terms.

The seat is also padded too. No one wants to sit on a slab of concrete while hoping to enjoy his play. Thankfully, On Stage understands that.

The seat is also wide enough to ensure comfort for the player. At 12.5 inches, the seat is a tad wider than most guitar stools you find. You’d definitely love how it feels.

Again, this is an adjustable guitar stool, so it makes the stool all the more convenient. From its normal height of 21 inches, the stool comes adjustable all the way to 31 inches. Even if this is a gift, you can rest easy because the stool will definitely fit whoever is going to be using it.

Pros

• Adjustable, padded backrest.
• Wide, padded seat.
• Footrests.

Cons

• Not foldable.
• Adjustment requires partial disassembly.

Why We Liked It:

A stool that comes with a padded seat and backrest? Why won’t we?

Okay, so if you love your guitar stools really thick then you need to get this guitar practice chair from Proline. It’s got probably the thickest padding you can ever find with guitar stools currently available in the market today.

The stool swivels, of course. So if you love the freedom of movement while you play, this baby will do you good.

It comes at a really great height, that is 24 inches. At 24 inches, almost anyone would feel really comfortable sitting on it to play. So, even though it isn’t adjustable, it’s still very manageable.

As for stability and strength, the stool is rock solid. All the legs are reinforced with chrome finishing to ensure that they retain their shine and strength as the years go by.

The legs also come with rubber caps. These caps will keep the stool from slipping off. They will also help to keep the feet of your stool from wearing off with constant interaction with the ground/floor.

Setup is pretty easy and Proline even did you the favor of including tools, how sweet!

Pros

• Extreme, super thick padding.

The seat of the Budget Bar Stool Professional Guitar Stool is really well padded. In fact, it is almost as thick as the Proline. And that’s saying a lot because, as you know, Proline is quite thick.

And to spice things up a little, the seats are available in a wide range of colors. This way, you can pick anyone that suits your personality and style. The width remains the same across the different colors, though. It’s still 14.5 inches, which is great because a wide stool is a comfy stool.

The legs of the stool are also quite solid. Well, they are made of steel, so… They also come with a semi-glossy nickel chrome finish. This finish keeps them shiny and durable. Just like the little rubber caps at the bottom of each leg which keep them from wearing off.

Yep, there’s a footrest too.
