ABSTRACT:
A supporting device for a stringed musical instrument is disclosed. The device has a support member whose ends are provided with clamping means and rest means for resting the instrument on the body of a musician. The rest means is connected to the support member by locking means which selectively locks the support member with respect to the rest means. The device is preferably adjustable in height and width, and is formed to be tiltable. The clamping means preferably engage the instrument in the region of a rib on an edge portion of the instrument. During use of the supporting device, a change in the position of the instrument does not cause a change in the position of the rest means, so that a player is to a large extent freed from strain while holding the instrument.
