Need Armrest for my SD-10

Post by Ben Wittke »

I am getting to the age where I need all the help I can get. I am finding that I am losing my accuracy in picking. I am used to leaning on the bottom neck of a D-10 which I no longer play. Does anyone have a similar problem and do you have a solution. I have been playing for 50 years and never had this problem before. HELP.

I'm not trying to be contentious, but the answer to your query may be: "what did you "lean on" when you "did" play the inside neck of your D-10?"

Well I have to say that's a good question, but I guess I didn't use it that much.

I screwed a small book shelf to the side of my last PSG and rested my fore arm on it. I would not do that to my Sho Bud but you could maybe get a couple of pieces of wood joined at a right angle and attach them to the side of the guitar with a couple of g-clamps.
