Use the discount code CGS2023 and save 10% on your entire order.<\/a><\/h6>\n<h3>Is it adjustable?<\/h3>\n<p>Some guitar supports are adjustable, others are not. \u00a0Cushions are largely a set height and cannot be adjusted. \u00a0Footstools are adjustable, with limited options. \u00a0Other supports may adjust via placement (such as the Gitano Guitar Support), or via mechanisms (such as the Ergoplay or Murata).<\/p>\n<p>The Sagework uses two mechanisms. \u00a0One to adjust the tilt, and another to adjust the overall height. \u00a0This makes it quite versatile. \u00a0It allows for many configurations.<\/p>\n<h3>Do I have to modify my guitar?<\/h3>\n<p>The magnets that the Sagework employs are removable, with no damage to the guitar. \u00a0This is in contrast to the guitar strap, which generally requires drilling in an end pin.<\/p>\n<h3>Will it affect the sound of my guitar?<\/h3>\n<p>No. \u00a0To my knowledge, none of the common guitar supports on the market affect the sound quality in any way.<\/p>\n<p>However, the angle at which we hold the guitar can affect the way we play it (which does affect the tone quality). \u00a0But the support itself makes no change in sound, volume, or tone.<\/p>\n<h3>Will it damage the finish on my guitar?<\/h3>\n<p>Some guitar supports have more wear-and-tear than others, depending on your guitar&#8217;s finish. \u00a0For instance, if your back and sides are finished in a &#8220;french polish&#8221;, suction cups will eventually strip it off. \u00a0French polish can be touched up. \u00a0But in the meantime, the suction cups won&#8217;t stick as well.<\/p>\n<p>The Sagework does not have this issue, because it uses magnets. \u00a0As long as you&#8217;re gentle when putting it on (the magnets are strong), it is harmless to the finish.<\/p>\n<p>The contact points of the Sagework Guitar Support are covered in cork. \u00a0So it&#8217;s very soft on the finish.<\/p>\n<p>The Sagework Guitar Supports offer a wide range of benefits:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Magnetic attachments prevents slippage or wear associated with suction cups<\/li>\n<li>Fully customization adjustments<\/li>\n<li>compact for storage and travel<\/li>\n<li>If extra magnets are purchased, you can you the same support on multiple guitars<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Cons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Installation can be quiet difficult and frustrating<\/li>\n<li>Moving the magnets or making big changes after installation is very difficult<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For more on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sagework.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sagework Guitar Support<\/a>, visit their site directly.<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lddy.no\/6qhu\">Click here to purchase.

Here are the reasons why:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It attaches with magnets instead of suction cups or clamps<\/li>\n<li>It offers four different adjustment mechanisms to ensure exceptional comfort<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The handmade Atlas, and the less expensive and modernized Umbra Standard are the only supports that attaches to your guitar with magnets. Once you find the perfect position for the support, you simply attach two high strength magnets inside your guitar along the lower bout with removable 3M Command Strips. With the magnets in place, the support attaches to the exact same spot on your guitar every time. It attaches and detaches very easily.<\/p>\n<p>The unique use of magnets makes the initial installation a little more involved, but has many advantages. Most important, it ensures a more secure, reliable connection between the support and your guitar than suction cups or some clamps<\/p>\n<div class=\"gmail_default\">Related posts:<\/div>\n<div class=\"gmail_default\">\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/how-to-hold-a-guitar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">How to Sit and Hold a Guitar<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/pain\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Classical Guitar Practice and Pain<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/sliding-slipping-guitar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tip for Slipping Guitar Supports<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With all the guitar supports in the market, the Sagework Guitar Support stands above the rest.
