Abstract
An instrument support adapted for placement between a musical instrument and a musician's body includes a flexible pad joined to a flexible flap. The instrument support has a roughly textured side for resting against a musician's clothing without slipping and a smoothly textured side for contacting the instrument. A transverse ridge extending from an approximately flat upper surface of the pad establishes an accurately repeatable position reference for playing the instrument and prevents the instrument from slipping from the pad. The smoothly textured top of the pad establishes close contact with a smooth surface on the instrument and may establish stiction or suction between the pad and the instrument. An end of the flap may optionally be tucked around a belt worn by a musician to hold the pad in a preferred position against the musician's chosen leg. Some embodiments include a belt clip attached the flap.
