MusicNomad MN207 Premium Instrument Work Mat & Cradle Cube Neck Support

Awesome piece of gear. I do all my own luthier/tech work. I used to have a pillow and soft blanket I would use when I needed to change strings, do a set up, fret work etc. I bought this combo set and it's definetly paid for itself. With different sides to hold almost any stringed instrument within reason you can't go wrong. It holds the necks secure due to the materail it's made from guitars don't really slide around on it. The mate itself doesn't slide on my table top at all once laid out. They're totally safe for your finish so no worry about scratches! The neck stand can also double as a holder for your tools. As I said I do all of my own work so I don't use it for this as I have so many tools I had to buy a tool box just for my guitar stuff. All in all this is a must have even if you only use it for string changes. Great value and as always that awesome Music Nomad quality. You really can't go wrong. Save yourself some headaches and buy 1 of these bad boys immediately!

On the surface, this is a pretty straight forward product with not a whole lot of imagination to be expected. It does the job you expect quite ably. One unexpected (to me anyway) benefit though comes in form of being able to lay the neck support on its side and have it still cradle the guitar neck effectively. Given the soft silicon surface and the wider V angle to it, it self adjusts to the radius of the neck and is both lower and create a much lower angle for the guitar to lay at. You wind up with virtually no chance of the guitar getting knocked over and with the guitar being closer to flat while all but the end of the body is held away from the matt. I find i can also put an electric on its edge as if it were being played, which makes setting the action and intonation accurately a bit easier. CON: The one con I'll toss out there is not enough for me to take a full star away. The matt comes with an elastic strap to hold it together when it's rolled up, but that strap is loose, and thus easy to have fall on the floor, drop between things, or otherwise get lost. It would be nice if it was stitched into the edge such that the matt could still lay flat and the strap could be pulled up and over the matt when it's rolled up, but that it was in no risk of getting separated from the matt. Alternatively, having a little clip or punch in the neck support would provide storage to keep all three pieces together.

I have a number of guitars, and I work on my pickups, change strings, clean them, etc. This mat is perfect for that. The neck support can be laid on its side or it can stand a bit higher, allowing you to work on both electric and acoustic guitars. And the block is designed to accommodate the fret board of the neck and the rounded side - that is some thoughtful engineering! I am also happy with the quality of the mat, and the mat thickness is perfect for guitars - even a heavy Les Paul. It would be too thin if you were also working on bowling balls, but that is not an issue for me. I wholeheartedly recommend this if you are on the fence due to some of the negative reviews, as I was.

I love, love, love this kit. I can work quicker in changing strings than having to worry about my roundback guitar slipping off of the table or having another person hold it down for me. The string winder is awesome, it never gets stuck on the other adjusters like the square winders used to do on my 12 string. The mat is wonderfully made and is rubbery. The blue holder holds the neck nicely and keeps it off the mat so that winding and unwinding goes fast. I would highly recommend for those musicians that like to change out their strings within 6 months or so.

This works fantastic with my Tele, which has a flat back. The mat keeps it protected and in place, and the neck cradle frees up your hand(s) for string changes, cleaning, and other maintenance. My Taylor 150e has a rounded/arched back, and the guitar wobbles on the mat when I'm working on it. It would be helpful if there were some sort of pad to help account for this (I know some Guilds are like this, and don't even think about using this with an Ovation), but otherwise it's a great piece of gear to help with guitar maintenance.

Good quality. Fits any acoustic or electric guitar. A long scale bass may not fit. Attractive color, skid proof material. Rolls up and stores neatly

Great for working on a bass.

Does it's job well

Produit conforme et idéal pour travailler sur ses guitares. Le socle est revêtu d'un caoutchouc souple qui maintient bien le manche et le tapis est bien anti dérapant. Idéal.

Amazing product. The rest is amazing. Makes the instrument feel really secure unlike most neck rests. Works on any strings instrument as well

後に弦交換セットを発見。ネックピローもその中に付属。知ってたら、マットと弦交換セットを買っていた。MUSIC NOMADの製品はおしゃれで所有感を満たしてくれる。全部揃えたい。

The MusicNomad products are high quality. The neck cradle has a soft rubbery finish that prevents guitars from slipping and sliding while working on them. It doubles as a tool holder cup. The mat is very non slip.
