Merci pour ce tuto très explicite ! Je pensais que ce siège réglable à 3 positions, était idéal pour tous les guitaristes. Aussi j’étais tellement convaincu, que j’ai failli l’acheter... Ce tuto m’a permis d’avoir un point de vue différent, que je valide, car je ne suis pas convaincu du côté pratique de ce siège. Effectivement, ce dossier est trop loin en arrière, et non réglable vers l’avant, et même si on le descend, ce n’est pas suffisant. Un simple tabouret fait mieux l’affaire avec une assise confortable remboursée, et en dépensant moins financièrement. De plus, un guitariste classique ou voulant jouer du Flamenco comme moi, a le dos droit ou penché légèrement en avant. Un grand merci à vous pour cette objectivité !❤ Thank you for this very clear tutorial! I thought this 3-position adjustable seat was ideal for all guitarists. Also I was so convinced, that I almost bought it... This tutorial allowed me to have a different point of view, which I validate, because I am not convinced of the practical side of this seat. Indeed, this backrest is too far back, and not adjustable forwards, and even if it is lowered, it is not enough. A simple stool does the job better with a comfortable seat reimbursed, and by spending less financially. In addition, a classical guitarist or wanting to play Flamenco like me, has a straight back or leaning slightly forward. A big thank you to you for this objectivity!❤
So sorry that I missed this comment when you posted it. Thank you so much for watching and taking the trouble to comment. I’m glad the video helped. ;)
I purchased the Quicklok DX749 chair just before I discovered your video...very honest review. I agree with your conclusions, and I use my Quick Lok probably more as a computer chair than when I am playing and the reason for that is that, it allows me to use my motorized workstation at any height I choose. When I play in the classical position I use a variable height footrest as you have suggested. I tend to leave the desk at one height however, instead of moving it up and down all the time. It is a fairly comfortable chair for playing or working at the computer. For playing, I recommend taking short breaks every so often to stretch the body. My biggest complaint with the Quick Lok is with the rubber foot grips on the footrest peg. They fall off from constant use unless you fix them down with cement or electrical tape wrapped around the footrest peg to ensure a tight fit.
Hi Ken, Yes, I still have and use the two IDX749 chairs but regret purchasing them. The design seems to have had more to do with ease of manufacture than functionality. And yes about the foot rest 'grips'! I tried heavy duty double sided sticky tape etc....nothing kept them on. They 'won' in the end and I ditched them..ha. Thank you for taking the trouble to make a comment here. Enjoy your guitar ;)
I agree with you sir. I usually practice guitar between 6 to 8 hours a day, religiously. I purchased the DX-749 in hopes that it would be an alternative to sitting on my bed. I lasted about 10 minutes on It. It became impossible to focus on my guitar because I was so preoccupied with trying to find a comfortable position. A complete waste of time and money...
Yes...they are poorly designed. Good luck with finding a good stool/chair. Let me know if you do find one! Thank you for taking the trouble to comment and good luck with all your music practice ;)
You covered my main issues pretty quickly. I'm currently using a nice folding chair, which has been a great deal better than what I was doing before, but sitting on it a long time I tend to slump into the back, so it seems better at least while playing guitar to have no back at all, but then it's no good for just sitting there otherwise. Basically, this stool would be much better if the seat were smaller. You nailed it near the end. It's also a computer chair. My set up is all on stands, but it's both a guitar workstation and where I also do just about everything on my iPad.
Thank you for this awesome review, the comparison with the stool was great and for my needs is what i'll be getting. The demonstrations of leg positions was exactly what i needed to make up my mind. liked and subscribed.
Phoenix Rain thank you for taking the time to comment and subscribe. I still have both seat options and I definitely think you made the right choice ;)
i have been playing guitar for about 40 years and no matter what device i used for playing guitar. my back is always stiff. i tried the cushion, footstool ect...........it does not work for me. the only relief is in using a basic guitar strap. if your a classical guitar player then that thought of using a strap is blasphemy............................................ go figure.
Interesting. I have had the stool for years and couldn't wait to get shut of it. I now find the quicklok chair exceptionally adjustable and comfortable, but that wasn't initially apparent until I worked at it with seat heights and foot rest heights. The only thing I found improvement in was that I made was a platform for my feet that sits on the footrest tubes. Those tubes are really uncomfortable and should be flat plates. Different strokes I guess. I would not consider dropping the Quicklok concept based on your review as for some it's truly superb. Sorry dude - can't agree at all.
Guess I should have watched the video BEFORE I bought the chair. I immediately noticed that the little plastic pieces on the footrest fall off constantly. I wanted something (relatively) comfortable that would force me to use better posture. Ironically, it seems to force you to slouch back and slant the guitar backwards on your lap, which isn’t really the “right” way to sit when playing guitar. I will try your “2nd footrest” method.
yes..I found that with the plastic tubes on the footrest! I've had to stick them on. And be careful of the seat itself..the 'leather' is paper thin. I sat gently with a loose tremolo arm pointing down and it went straight through. I've had them a while now and would be even more negative about the whole design. thanks for posting ;)
Sorry, I totally missed some comments on this video. I'm glad you watched and am very grateful that you took the time to be courteous. Thank you...I hope things a re going well for you ;)
Great review thank you. I was questioning the back rest adjust ability as well as the foot rest. Been thinking about getting the Rock Soc stool with a back rest. seemed like it would work.
Great demo man. I thought I remembered trying one of these out long time ago and seem to remember the backrest not being close enough - that my lower back was rubbing the frame that the back rest slides on.
about to buy one of these (I’m a keyboard player) I had the old model the D749, i actually had no issues with it and it’s now worn out after years of use, hence gettng this newer DX749, i guess it’s just no good if your a guitarist ? My older D749 was a nightmare with the feet falling off, that is indeed RUBBISH!!🤣 so I decided to superglue the end caps and then they do NOT fall off
I think that most of the problems I’ve encountered are really only relevant to guitarists. (I still use the Quicklok for general sitting at the desk). The end caps are completely useless! And, over time, I’ve found that the adjusting knobs also fall off (so becoming unadjustable)! Sorry I missed the comment when you posted it :S All the best - Ian
Reviewer's height would be useful as I have read elsewhere that anyone under 5 10 would not reach the floor. The "backrest" is a lumbar support as demonstrated in the PC desk section. The question is why does is it designed to go so high? The best I can think of is it may be a safety device so the user does not lean back too far and fall off. Good point about the square seat and the foot rest being recessed too far. I'm in the market for a chair/stool but will now only look at round or bicycle shaped seats.
Great job to consider the classical style. LOL While searching for a chair, I anticipated the problems that you confirmed. I was looking for one with a minimum seat height of around 18" but they are all 23" or higher and that doesn't make sense for a classical. Many of the pictures of people on them all had their legs going down hill. Great review. Not going to get one of those types. But they got sneaky marketing gimmicks to fool you.
Thank you for taking the trouble to comment. Yes..I’ve had mine for a long time now and my views haven’t changed. They are a poor design! Thanks again for watching and commenting ;)
Thank you for this video! I am having much the same problems with a recently purchased K&M music stool with backrest. As primarily a classical player the optimal sitting position is impossible to achieve with it as one ideally ought to have both feet on the floor and ones thighs supported horizontal to the ground with the instrument resting on one’s left thigh at approx 45deg angle so headstock pretty much level with ones eyes. Atleast the seat on your Quiklok was adjustable to a lower postion that might allow such a posture - but as you rightly say that would then mean you being perched on the front edge of tthe seat with zero benefit from the backrest!! I have been looking at drum thrones with backrests but once again I suspect the same conundrum would pertain. I do suspect therefore that a simple low or adjustable stool without back rest at all might have to be the so,ution!
I am so sorry that I missed this comment at the time it was made. Thank you for taking the trouble to write. I hope that you have found the perfect solution for you. All the best - Ian ;)
Considering this for my synths. Got a two tier stand at Christmas but it won’t lower itself enough for my current seat. And it’s so hard to find height adjustable seats that go high enough to reach the top synth.
Ditto on the previous comment. Thank you so much. I almost ordered it cuz it looked like a really nice guitar chair. But it doesn't look very comfortable even though it's adjustable. I noticed some guitar instructors have chairs that look like armchairs without the arms with a full back on them. I need to go with that or a stool. Thank you for this review. That guitar chair is very overrated.
Yes, I used to have a full-back leather office chair that had removable arms. I removed one arm for the body of the guitar and left the other for leaning on(!). It was a very comfortable chair for teaching and all round use in the music room. (You had to sit forward to play classical style, but you also have to do that with these Quikloks). The design of the Quiklok seems to be for ease of manufacture, NOT for practical use. Thanks for commenting ;)
I actually bought one…and I really like it… mainly because the back rest goes low and supports my lower back…. and the footrest is adjustable…. Overall I would give it 4 stars….. of course that’s just my opinion…

I stand up when recording, editing, mixing, mastering and playing guitars and keys but my floor is not level. This is causing back and leg problems. The spot I stand on is the best locations for mixing. I need a stool that tall enough and comfortable enough to sit on for 8- 10 hours a days. Do you sit for hours and is it okay? Thanks!
Hi, so sorry that I didn’t see this comment when you posted. If you haven’t already found your ideal seat, I am happy to throw in my opinion (having now had these stools for years). Just ask… Thanks for watching and taking the trouble to comment ;)
Got a similar one..another brand..used for years..probably 20..tried and tried .different positions..it’s okay now after I found a plastic milk box to rest my food/legs on lol
ha .. shouldn't really be that difficult should it. The guitar was mastered years ago...now it's just about getting something decent to sit on while playing it ;P

I find you brave to like it. cause I've tried it and it was so shit. maybe you're built different. but for my physic. its a no. i wouldve made a mistake had I not tried it in stores.
I'd love to try that store! Yes, I get what you are saying about comfort. For me, it is more important to have the foot rest in a good position and I still think the Fender stool wins over the Quiklok. I don't know about all those others! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment ;)
Hi, I have always played in rock bands; I teach London College of Music grades in modern guitar playing (which lends towards Jazz) and just recently I have played a lot of acoustic (both steel-strung and classical) ...so I guess I am a bit of a jack or all trades ..ha I pretty much like any music that I consider to be played well! And 'pop' is obviously popular for a reason ..ha Keep enjoying ;)
I was considering this Quiklok chair and found your review to be tremendously helpful! I think I'll stick with a standard stool as well.
His examination of this Quick Lok DX749 stool has been beneficial for whether I'd consider purchasing it.
Thank you for taking the trouble to comment ;) I'm glad the review has helped!
@@IMDguitar You're welcome.
After viewing your video. I bought a Roc N Soc round seat throne. It costed less and is very comfortable. Thanks for sharing.
Man, thank you so much for putting this out! I wanted a DX749, but then just went with the simple stool you showed at the end.
