PERFORMER STEALTH CHAIR • THE MUSICIAN'S FOUNDATION
Ergonomic saddle design for unlimited movement—built for the stage, studio, and every session in between

Freedom to Move. Built to Support. Designed for Performance.
No Arms • Saddle Design • Dual Cylinders • Stage-Ready • 5-Year Warranty

Here's what most musicians figure out the hard way: traditional bar stools are torture devices disguised as seating. Flat seats that cut off circulation. Static positions that lock you in place. No back support during 3-hour sessions. By set three, your lower back is screaming and your legs are numb.

The Performer Stealth Chair eliminates all of that. This isn't a modified bar stool—it's a purpose-built ergonomic saddle designed specifically for musicians, vocalists, and performers who need freedom of movement without sacrificing support. The saddle design keeps your pelvis in a neutral position, your spine naturally aligned, and your circulation flowing—whether you're sitting upright at the mic, leaning into your instrument, or shifting positions throughout a marathon session.

THE SADDLE ADVANTAGE: Why Shape Matters

Traditional flat stools force you into one static position. Your weight concentrates on your sit bones, cutting off circulation. Your pelvis tilts backward, collapsing your lower back. After an hour, everything hurts. After three hours, you're in survival mode.

The Performer's saddle design works with your body's natural geometry. The contoured shape distributes your weight across a larger surface area—no pressure points, no circulation issues. The forward taper allows your thighs to angle naturally downward, keeping your pelvis in a neutral position. Your spine maintains its natural S-curve without effort. You can shift positions freely—perch upright at the mic, lean into your guitar, pivot to reach pedals—and the saddle supports every position.

NO ARMS = COMPLETE FREEDOM

This isn't a compromise—it's a design choice. When you're playing guitar, bass, keys, or any instrument, armrests are obstacles. They limit your positioning options. They interfere with instrument placement. They restrict your movement during performance.

The Performer eliminates that friction entirely. The saddle provides all the support you need through proper pelvic positioning and the optional backrest—you don't need armrests constraining your movement. Position your guitar exactly where it needs to be. Reach your pedal board without fighting furniture. Move naturally with your performance. The chair supports you without restricting you.

Built for Every Performance Scenario:
Studio Recording Sessions – Comfortable for hours of takes and overdubs
Live Performance – Ergonomic support during multi-hour shows
Practice & Rehearsal – Maintain proper posture during long sessions
Vocal Sessions – Optimal posture for breath control and projection
Orchestral & Theater Pits – Compact footprint, professional appearance
Teaching Studios – Demonstrate proper technique without discomfort
Home Studio Production – Professional ergonomics for solo work

DUAL CYLINDERS: Adapt to Any Environment

Every Performer Stool includes two gas cylinders with different height ranges—because musicians work in wildly different environments. Recording studio vocal booth? Orchestra pit? Bar stage? Festival riser? Home studio? Each demands different seating heights.

STANDARD CYLINDER
Height Range: 21"–26"
Best For: Standard stages, rehearsal spaces, home studios, teaching environments
TALL CYLINDER
Height Range: Available for higher applications (22"–28" height range)
Best For: Standing-height work surfaces, elevated stages, bar/counter scenarios

The included foot ring provides crucial support when using the taller cylinder heights. It reduces leg fatigue during extended sessions and gives you a stable platform for shifting your weight during performance. This isn't an afterthought—it's an integrated component of the ergonomic system.

CASTERS OR GLIDES: Choose Your Base

The Performer is available with your choice of rolling casters or stationary glides—two fundamentally different tools for different applications:

CASTERS (ROLLING BASE)
Best For: Studios, rehearsal spaces, teaching environments, anywhere you need repositioning flexibility

Advantages: Easy to move between setups. Reposition during sessions. Roll to equipment. Quick adjustments.

Ideal Applications: Recording studios where you're moving between instruments, teaching studios with multiple student positions, home studios with flexible layouts
GLIDES (STATIONARY BASE)
Best For: Live performance, stages, orchestra pits, anywhere absolute stability matters

Advantages: Rock-solid stability. Won't roll during performance. Stage-safe. Non-marking glides protect floors.

Ideal Applications: Concert stages where movement could be dangerous, theater pits with limited space, bar gigs on raked stages, festival performances with cable-heavy floors

Pro tip: Many professional musicians order both versions—casters for studio work, glides for live performance. The investment in the right tool for each environment pays off in confidence and comfort.

ENDLESS POSTURE POSSIBILITIES

This is where the Performer truly shines. The saddle design doesn't lock you into one position—it supports infinite variations. Perch upright for vocals. Lean forward over your instrument. Shift to one side for pedal access. Rotate for monitor positioning. Every posture works because the saddle adapts to your body's geometry rather than forcing your body to adapt to furniture.

The optional backrest provides lumbar support when you need it, but doesn't restrict forward movement when you don't. It's there when you want to rest between songs, but invisible during active performance. This flexibility is what separates professional equipment from furniture—tools that adapt to your work, not the other way around.

PERFORMER vs. STANDARD/PRO CHAIRS: WHICH DO YOU NEED?

Choose Performer if: You're primarily performing with instruments, need maximum movement freedom, work at varying heights, or require a compact stage footprint

Choose Standard/Pro if: You're mixing/engineering at consoles, need armrest support, work primarily at fixed desk heights, or do extended forward-lean console work

Many professionals own both—the right tool for each application
