BEST PERFORMANCE STARTS AT THE HEART TAMA's new 1st Chair drum thrones were designed with basic comfort in mind. Several new features have been developed to increase the stabilization of the throne, and therefore the core, for maximum comfort and improved performance. From extra wide rubber feet and significantly more stable legs to our newly improved "Seat Lock" seat support and extra smooth "Glide Tite Grip Joint", Tama's new premier chair thrones have stayed from the ground up. Additionally, by lowering the distance between the central throne tube and the ground, Tama has lowered the center of gravity for better stability and overall playing comfort. With these significant improvements, drummers can think less about physical stress or fatigue, and more about the music.
