Helloo
I recently changed my strings (successfully) for the first time. My first attempt left few winds on the tuning pegs, and my "high E" sheered off at the bridge.
So I got a new set of strings and managed to get them on. They're doing really well now. They're stretched in and tuned and sounding nice.
But...
... I can't go through that hassle again.
My guitar was all over the place, and I didn't want to put it flat on the carpet in case of fluffage.
So I've been looking at getting a stand to support the neck while I change strings, to stop it slipping around and trying to escape.
I saw a stand set on Ebay a few years ago. It was like one of those wall hangers with the two prongs facing up, being supported by a steel cross on the floor. There was another piece that was a horizontal padded bar, also supported by a steel cross.
But I can't find anything like that when I Google. Anyone know what I'm on about?
I wouldn't mind something like that, but I think I may prefer something that would fold up and fit in my hard-case.
Could anyone recommend a neck support/rest thing? Money is an issue, so I probably couldn't get anything fancy, gold plated and diamond encrusted. Just something of decent quality that does it's job well.
Thank you.
