I'll second the props on Steeler's Choice. Mine is still perfect...and I'm also a member of the Zipper Club.

Having said that, Joe Naylor also makes a fine seat...

Steelers Choice Seats

Post by Joe DePascale »

I just received my seat today made by Dan Rollins of Steelers Choice . I’m retired with a bad back injury and this seat gives me the support I need on the lower back. It’s well made and the cushion is supportive.

I've got a steelers choice with back rest and sidecar. It is about 14 years old still doing fine. Steel seat is also a fine seat. Wes

Pedal steel seat

Post by Archie Walpole »

Need opinions please. I sit a basic Walker now. No back rest. Can anyone recommend a seat with ample cushioning that can handle my old bony butt and lower back issue? After an extended practice session......I feel like I'm welded to the Walker. Would you recommend the back rest? How do YOU use a built in power strip?

Hey Chris, I know nothing about the new steel seats but do have a good old Sho-Bud stool that is for sale. J.R.

Steelers Choice and Dan Rollins

Post by RMckee »

Back in 1984 at the St. Louis convention, for an anniversary present, my wife bought me an Ace seat. I have used that thing ever since. It has been a great seat; however, over time it has just simply started showing its age. The cracks in the covering embarrassed my wife every time she saw them. Over the past several years I have had occasion to sit on seats owned by Jerry Roller and Jerry Newberry and found I liked them. Last Thursday I thought I would check with Steelers Choice about getting a new seat. Dan quickly responded to my query on the company site, called me, we chatted, and I ordered a new seat. Today it arrived. 5 day turnaround. The seat is perfect. Thanks Dan!
