Steeler's Choice Seat

Post by Terry McBurney »

I just took delivery on a new seat built by Ken Rollans with Steeler's Choice.

You know, I don't see how he accomplishes such a high degree of quality and yet keep the price reasonable! I am amazed...but thankful.

Thank you Ken for outstanding workmanship.

You are so right, Ken and Son do a fine job. Last year he built me a sofa that doubles as a pac seat this rascal is huge, comfortable, looks sharp and is built like a tank. Thanks again Ken.

I too just received my new pac-a-seat made by Ken Rollans of Steeler's Choice, and am extremely happy with it, and the service provided by Ken and his family.
Thanks -- Marc

I think you guys can look to many years of service from you seat. I got mine in 1993 at the ISGC in St. Louis, used it a bunch, dragged it all over the US and it still serves me well. Ken does indeed build a great seat. I highly recommend them. Then this past March in Dallas, my wife and I were selling some embroidered items along with my CDs and tapes, and Mr. Rollens had the adjacent table. We chatted for awhile and he said that someday I would need some replacement caps for the legs, and handed me four of them no charge. What a guy! Just as nice and honest as they get. And Mrs. Rollens was very nice as well.

Erv...

There may be a glitch (slow down)because I know he does his own work (or his son)...but it is worth the wait.

You will be proud.

....and isn't it nice that you can put a cup of coffee (or whatever Image) beside you if you leave the top of the side-compartment open as you play!

Terry,
I know what you mean! I have been waiting quite a while already (I placed my order on April 8th) but I have an old Sho-Bud seat to tide me over till it comes. I truly believe that Kenny builds the finest seat and he is such a nice guy that how can anyone get upset with him. I'm sure it will be worth the wait!

I, too, want to say that Ken Rollans and his son do excellent work on those "Steelers Choice" seats. I've had mine (a sidekick) for almost a year....and am proud to be a Steelers Choice owner. Got to see Ken last week as I was coming through Little Rock. He's not only a great craftsman, but a fine gentleman as well. You'll never go wrong investing in one of his products. HAL

Steelers Choice seats are the greatest!
I just received two.
They are in the same class as my Millennium
MSA. Light weight, strong, best materials, built with quality, comfort and good looking!
Dealing with Ken was a pleasure, if more people were like him, there would be no problems in this world!

Thanks Ken !

I bought my seat at the Texas Show. I was lucky to buy mine the first day before he sold out. I told Ken I kinda sit to the side when I play my C6. He told me when he got it back to the house he would replace the regular foam with some heavier stuff because of the way I sit. And he did! What a great guy. I may not have ever know the difference but he didn't hesitate for a second. You're right about the coffee. Great for praticing early morning. It just sits in there soooo nice. : )
