    Hey Landon, the foot rest/tipping thing is EXACTLY why you put a Les Paul on the hanger.
    That’s how they solved it - you have to put a boat anchor on the back…

    Is it good for a classical guitarist? I would need the foot rest to be in the right position and height in relation to the seat height. But nobody reviews that. They just forget about us nylon left knee people.

    Appreciate the video as I have a bad back and I have been looking for a chair that is comfortable to sit down and play the guitar. So, I have to take this up a notch - can you please let us know what chair you are sitting in while recording the video? Would you recommend that chair by any chance? I am looking for a chair similar to what you are sitting in for this video - one where the arms of the chair go up. I realize this video is to promote the Gator chair, but as you can see from the comments, I think people are looking for something a little more sturdy and comfy. Thanks!
    P.S. Tim Pierce recommended a chair in one of his vids (sold by Relax the Back)…it only cost ~$2500!!😮

    Like many folks I was using a bunch of those cheap tripod type stands for years...make the livingroom look like a forest of guitars...about 4 years ago switched to racks of 5 or 7 etc. (Hercules brand) and feel much more secure...nothing to trip ovover or accidenly drag a cable over and crash an expensive guitar...watched that happen a few times over the decades (and of course one did the gibson headstock trick!)....I would need to see for myself how solid that chair/guitar hanger is before trusting it.

    I had a Gator case. It was empty and I left it on the back of my truck. I took off and it slid off, falling tge 4ft or so to the pavement and the case exploded. It broke in two different places and had pieces falling off all over the inside of my car. I expected way better performance for all the hype. This case was junk. I got that one with a guitar, but now I know better than to buy one.

    NOPE on the guitar hanger. And Gator refuses to fix the terrible seat issue by adding real wood instead of partiicle wood. SUPER cheap. If they ever fix that I'm in. And it's not cheap. Come on GATOR, get your sh.t together. But.... it's an easy fix folks. Do. not screw the wood scres into the bottom of the seat very tight and lock them in with epoxy. Mix the epoxy, porr it onto the srew holes and quickly lightly tighten the screws. Problem solved. Those screws will NEVER come out. If you wear out the seat you can just drill the srew heads off and the seat will come off, easy. Your new seat will come with screws.

Don't assume they are here to be entertained by you, know personal information about you or watch you. They just want to know about the chair/stool (sturdiness, warranty, quality, usefulness for purpose and price, etc in an unbiased presentation). They want lots of video of the product.
