They are solidly built and fold for transportation. Bit pricey at around 120 bucks, but if I dont spend it, my kids will inherit the dough. lol

I generally play sat down, especially if i'm recording. However if i'm practicing songs for a show then I practice them stood up.

The other buggers stand. As a senior I get sitting rights.

Bought it off Ebay

i've tried a stool on stage, works great, till the energy starts, then i HAVE to stand up.
practicing , both ways in front of a mirror.

I practice standing up, and sit down if I feel like it.

I don't gig, so what I do doesn't really count as 'practice' any more. I'm just playing 'coz I have to, is all. So I sit a lot, to ease my back. If I ever get around to recording anything, I know I'm gonna have to do that standing up. A creaking chair can ruin a take. Of course, before I do any recording, I'll have to knock off a whole lotta rust, and then I'll be practicing. Standing up.

Standing up, just in case I finally land a gig, I want to be used to playing while standing opposed to sitting.
