ABSTRACT:
A device for playing chords on a stringed musical instrument by manually depressing a chord forming member extending transversely of the instrument neck. The device includes a bar clamp transversely gripping a stringed instrument neck with the topmost bar supporting a plurality of spring members projecting longitudinally of the neck toward the sound board and terminating in transversely enlarged plate end portions for noninterfering relation during movement toward and away from the neck. The spring member end portions are manually depressed individually toward the strings so that resilient pads on the undersurface of the spring members engage a selected number of strings in a string stopping chord producing action against predetermined frets on the instrument neck.
