Même assis très bas dans un fauteuil, la guitare est dans la bonne position.

Top

Al principio cogí el tamaño pequeño por desconocimiento y lo cambié por este aunque con algunas dudas. Todas esas dudas desaparecieron enseguida. Es muy cómodo y realmente esto hace que toques mejor, no solo más relajado si no que mejoras la posición de las manos tanto la derecha como la izquierda. Pensaba que sería más armatoste pero dentro de lo que cabe a mi parece estar en consonancia con todo el conjunto. Si alguien tiene dudas con respecto al tamaño, mi consejo es cojer el adulto si se trata de una guitarra 4/4. Se coloca fácilmente y enseguida coges un punto de referencia y no cuesta nada. Las ventosas no parece que vayan a dañar el barniz.

Funciona muy bien, se adhiere sin problemas a la guitarra, espero que las ventosas sean durables y no se desgasten rápido. NOTA: Si la guitarra es delgada este producto NO te va a servir.

Its very good quality and a blessing for those playing classical guitar.

I always used a footrest for playing classical guitar, but within the last couple of years I started experiencing some lower back pain while playing my nylon string. I attribute it to having one leg raised up and hunching over the guitar.I saw a video on YouTube where a guy was using one of these guitar supports instead of a footrest. After a Google search I discovered this device. I went to my local Guitar Center the next day to try one out, but they didn't carry it, (and had never heard of it).So, based on the reviews here on Amazon, I ordered one sight-unseen. It arrived in about a week, (to southern California), and I assembled it in under 90 seconds. I'm 6'2" so I tested it at medium height, (it's adjustable). It was far too high for my liking, (I don't want the headstock above my head). So I lowered it all the way down. It was still a little higher than I preferred, but all I had to do to get it perfect was to move the unit slightly closer to the neck. Because the suction cups are on an angled track, you can move the unit around to a certain degree and still get the cups to line up for a solid hold. Make sure that you have the suction cup tags facing away from the center of the unit when you assemble it, so that you can easily pull it off your guitar.If you play a classical guitar, you should definitely own one of these! For under $60, it's a must-have accessory. My back feels much better using this unit and I find myself sitting with better posture and playing more. It's much lighter than it looks yet feels like a quality product. It quickly attaches and is quickly removed. I also don't have to worry about scratching the underside of the guitar with cargo short buttons or anything in my pocket when using this.The only complaint I have is that it won't fit into a guitar case's center storage. I'd like to see them make one with a hinge so it could be folded down to nearly flat. Regardless, this is a 5-star product.

I came across this thing from a youtube video of Michael Lucarelli. My first thought was "What the hell is that?" I had a footstool. I really just wanted to try this thing out. I felt at the time that the price was too high. I initially was just standing out on a limb buying this. I really was trying to get a second option besides the footstool. At the time the footstool felt just fine. This thing looked like a glorified L Bracket. And the reviews made it seem to be for people with back problems (which i dont).The first few hours of playing with it, i just couldn't get comfortable with it. It took me a bit to find the right position. Also i kept having the feeling my guitar was not supported...but it was. It just felt odd. I kept feeling like i had to lift my toes or something to lift the guitar. It took me a bit to trust that this would support the guitar and sit in a relaxed state.However over the past couple of days since having this. I have set the stool back out of sight, and always am using this with my classical. Actually i haven't even taken this off. I hang my guitars on the wall and let the support just sit there suctioned with it. I have even accommodated extra space between my other guitars for my classical so i can leave this on it all the time. And yes these are good suction cups. Not the crap that comes with GPS units. I have even held only the support to put the guitar back on the wall hangers.I have not yet tried to figure a way to put this thing in a guitar case. However I dont feel it will fit. It would be nice if there was a lockable hinge at the 90 degree point so you could fold it on itself and stick it in a case. It is 2 pieces. The side with the wing nut can be shorted halfway, but that is about as compact as it can get.I have a feeling that this is one of my required things from now on. Just before you leave the house, guitar...check, picks....check, extra strings....check, music book...check, guitar support....check. Hell i might even buy one for the car to go.I do not regret buying this. Yes, i still feel like it is a little pricey, but its worth it. Such a simple design and yet so satisfying. It really proved itself to someone that didn't think much of it initially.It is not until now when playing with this support, that i realize the uncomfortable position of the footstool. I will never go back.UPDATE:After a month of playing on this...It is just amazing. I have not used the foot stool since buying this still. The suction cups do come off at times, but luckily gravity keeps it on. I did bend it a little by putting too much weight on as i was reaching over the guitar for something. It would be nice if it was a little stronger for the price. However it is still worth the buy. I do still have the problem of it sliding down my leg. I normally remedy this with a guitar repositioning. I was thinking of adding the hook velcro side on the under belly to help with friction, but not sure yet.UPDATE2:After a few years, i still use this. I have never went back to the foot stool since i bought this. Every so often the suction cups will come off, but they are not hard to put back on. I have also gotten this to fold in a guitar case with the guitar. And actually quite easy without damage too. What i do is i put the guitar in the case, then i unscrew the bracket and swing the leg back over itself to make a smaller L shape. Then i tuck the short side above the headstock down into the case, and let the long side come out of the headstock down towards the nut and neck. When i close the case it does not compress onto the guitar.
