K&M 14032

I bought this to go with my new K&M 14044 stool and am very glad I did. The stool was comfortable without the addition of a backrest, but the backrest gives me a bit better posture and enables me to sit still a bit longer without any kind of pain.

The backrest does make the stool less compact if you are folding it up and travelling with it, but for home use I am sure this will not be an issue. I am using it for gigging and think it well worth the small amount of extra space it takes up when travelling to and from a show. You can also remove the backrest which makes it a bit easier to transport, but I didn't want to go through the hassle of re-attaching it each time I went to a gig.

It is sturdy and well made, just like the stool itself. I have no qualms in recommending the K&M backrest. It would be nice if you could get an add-on guitar holder to clamp to the back of the seat rest.

The stool and backrest were delivered in two different boxes from Thomann, so I did momentarily panic that the stool had been forgotten. It arrived a day after the backrest, well packed and in perfect condition.
