Premier NXT GEN Marching Bass Drum Stand vs Sonor 6000 Series Saddle Top Drum Throne: which should I buy?
Published · Last updated
Answered by Roadie
Buy the Premier NXT GEN stand if you need support for a marching bass drum; choose the Sonor 6000 Series saddle-top throne if you need a drummer’s seat. They do different jobs, so they aren’t direct alternatives.
The Premier NXT GEN Marching Bass Drum Stand has a best new price of £40. It’s the relevant choice for supporting a marching bass drum, but check compatibility with your drum before buying.
The Sonor 6000 Series Saddle Top Drum Throne has a best new price of £291. It’s the relevant choice for seating yourself at the kit; check its height adjustment and try the saddle shape for comfort if possible.
Don’t let the price gap decide this one: buy for the job you need done. A drum stand won’t replace a throne, and a throne won’t replace a marching bass drum stand.
