I recently bought a Signature seat and it puts me a good 1-2" forward and higher.

Rich is local so I went to see him. He looked at my "hammock seat" and said he could build whatever I wanted on it. Everyone I talked to that has one of his seats loves them and you can see by the site, they do really top shelf work.
Its on my short list of things to do.
