Sagework Umbra Magnetic Guitar Support - STANDARD

Musical Theater Guitarist

I'm 6 foot+ tall so I always use support to help my posture, usually suction cups, but they slip off my Martin. After some research, I bought the Sagework Magnetic support (standard) and it's amazing! Take your time to install it correctly (it's not hard!) and it's so easy to deal with after that. I play musical theater, so I often have very quick changes from electric to acoustic. Sagework allows me to grab my acoustic and be comfortable and ready to play in no time. I'm not a classical player, so I have the Sagework set up to rest on right thigh. I find the standard height is plenty high for this style of playing. I use it on the lowest settings for both sides. I love it!

Excellent sturdy support

This Sagework Umbra support is a great addition to my classical guitar. It holds my guitar in the perfect position without compromising the instrument’s tone and projection. And I can play with both my feet placed comfortably on the floor. I like Umbra’s tilt mechanism that allows me to lean the guitar towards me at will. The support is secured with powerful magnets, is sturdy, and looks great. It holds its shape when putting on and off my guitar, and it folds up to fit in my case. I’m happy Geoff recommended this wonderful tool for me!

An extremely useful tool

Of all the research I have done, this support outweighs the others. There is a slight challenge in installing the magnets. A small hand is advised. I have an average-sized hand, and it was a bit of a stretch to reach the right place on the bout, but I did. I ultimately ordered a short Umbra Arm Assembly because the Standard sat my guitar a little high (by about 1"). I use a cutaway classical guitar, so that may have contributed to more height than I needed. Your mileage may vary. I'm 5'11" and weigh 163. Overall, I am extremely happy.
