A premium collection of saddle-style drum thrones and matching backrests marks the latest update to Gator’s Percussion Series, a group of accessories available for both aspiring and professional percussionists. The launch includes thrones with pneumatic height adjustment, a spindle-style version, and color-matched backrests compatible with both throne styles.
Gator’s Air Glide thrones use a piston height adjustment mechanism in place of a threaded post, allowing for smooth changes in playing height between 18″ and 24″ (45.7–61.0 cm). Each model features a contoured saddle seat with 3.5″ (8.9 cm) of thick padding and a soft velour surface for improved airflow, supported by a chrome-plated, reinforced, double-braced steel tripod base with an extra wide 23″ (58.4 cm) stance and oversized rubber feet for stability. Air Glide thrones are available in black, blue and red finishes.
A spindle-based alternative is also available in a saddle-style configuration. This drum throne uses a threaded height-adjustment post with a locking mechanism that provides the same adjustment range as the Air Glide thrones. The seat matches the pneumatic models with 3.5″ (8.9 cm) of thick padding and a velour surface, supported by a chrome-plated, double-braced tripod base with oversized rubber feet. This spindle-adjustment throne is offered in a black finish.
Color-matched backrests are available for both throne styles. Each unit offers up to 4″ (10.2 cm) of vertical adjustment, allowing the distance between the seat and backrest to be set within an approximate range of 1.75–5.75″ (4.4–14.6 cm). The back panel uses 2″ (5.1 cm) of padding with a velour surface, combining a soft contact area with a durable outer covering. Backrests are offered in black, blue and red to align with all saddle-style finishes.
